ISSN (print): 1139-6709. e-ISSN: 1618-1095 www.im.microbios.org Characterization of high exopolysaccharide- producing Lactobacillus strains isolated from mustard pickles for potential probiotic applications Jing-Yao Huang,1 Cheng-Yen Kao,2 We-Sin Liu,1 Tony J. Fang1,3* 1Department of Food Science and Biotechnology, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung, Taiwan, 2Department of Biotechnology and Laboratory Science in Medicine, School of Biomedical Science and Engineering, National Yang Ming University, Taipei, Taiwan, 3Food Industry Research and Development Institute, Hsinchu, Taiwan Received 27 March 2017 · Accepted 8 May 2017 Summary. The aim of this study was to characterize high exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from mustard pickles in Taiwan for potential probiotic applications. Among 39 collected LAB strains, four most productive EPS-producing strains were selected for further analysis. Comparative analyses of 16S rDNA genes rpoA and pheS sequences demonstrated that these strains were members of Lactobacillus plantarum-group (LPG). NCD 2, NLD 4, SLC 13, and NLD 16 showed survival rates of 95.83% ± 0.49%, 95.07% ± 0.64%, 105.84% ± 0.82%, and 99.65% ± 0.31% under simulated gastrointestinal conditions, respectively. No cytotoxic effects on macrophage RAW 264.7 cells were observed when they were treated with a low dose (1 μg/ml) of stimulants extracted from the tested LAB strains. The production of nitric oxide in RAW 264.7 cells incubated with various LAB stimulants showed a dose-dependent increase. Among the four strains, SLC 13 showed higher inhibitory activity on growth of Enterococcus faecalis (BCRC 12302) and Yersinia enterocolitica (BCRC 10807).

  • The Government Performance System Reform in Taiwan: Localized Focus and Citizen Participation+

    The Government Performance System Reform in Taiwan: Localized Focus and Citizen Participation+

    International Journal of China Studies Vol. 5, No. 1, April 2014, pp. 89-105 __________________________________________________________ The Government Performance System Reform in Taiwan: Localized Focus and Citizen Participation+ Eric Rong-yang Huang* Chinese Culture University Chun-yuan Wang** Central Police University Yan-yi Chang*** Chung Hua University Abstract The relations between local governments and citizens have grown increasingly closer in the past two decades. Several governmental performance reforms have taken place among developed countries that have mainly increased their local governance capacity by expanding citizen participation and deregulating the central government. However, in light of citizens’ expectations and requirements, it is necessary for local governments to adopt performance management efforts to enhance their public services. From 25th December 2010, the new five municipalities in Taiwan have brought new challenges to local governance and also to their performance management. This study attempts to understand the current status of performance management in Taiwanese local governments. The study used a focus group, in-depth interviews, and a survey to collect both qualitative and quantitative data. Based on the results, it provides policy recommendations to improve citizens’ participation in Taiwan’s local governmental performance management efforts. They include providing incentives for encouraging 89 90 Eric Rong­yang Huang, Chun­yuan Wang and Yan­yi Chang people to participate in performance measurement and weigh civil participation while designing the performance management mechanism. Keywords: performance management, local government, citizen participation, performance information, competitiveness JEL classification: H11, H70, H73, H83 1. Introduction In response to globalization and new public policy issues, developed countries have embarked on deregulation and encouraged citizen participation to improve the capacity of governments.
