Read Full License Page 1/9 Abstract Background Probiotic, Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are consumed by human through the traditional food products for several decades due to their benecial health effects. LAB is Gram positive, non motile bacteria that produce antimicrobial peptides for their defense mechanism. Among the antimicrobial peptides, Bacteriocins are widely investigated because of their possible utilization in food sector especially food security actions, where bacteriocin kills or inhibits the growth of other bacteria. Usage of metabolic products of LAB and LAB are generally recognized as safe. Therefore, this study was aimed to isolate LAB species that produce bacteriocin showing wide spectrum antibacterial activity. Results Lactic acid bacteria were isolated from yoghurt, curd, dosa batter, idli batter and soaked and ground rice batter using (De Man, Rogosa and Sharpe agar) MRS agar and incubated at room temperature (30±2ºC) for 24-72 h aerobically and anaerobically. When agar well diffusion method was employed to detect the antibacterial activity of the twenty ve isolates against food spoilage organisms (Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E.coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Serratia marcescens, Salmonella sp., Proteus sp., Micrococcus sp., and Bacillus sp.,). Three bacterial species showing broad spectrum of antibacterial activity, were identied and characterized by biochemical and molecular methods. The wide spectrum antibacterial bacterial species were identied as Lactobacillus reuteri AF182723 isolated from curd, Lactobacillus rhamnosus AY299488 isolated from rice batter and Lactobacillus acidophilus AF182726 isolated from yoghurt. Among all the isolates, Lactobacillus reuteri AF182723 showed signicant wide spectrum antibacterial activity against diverse Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial species. Conclusion The production of bacteriocin from Lactobacillus reuteri AF182723 and incorporating it in the food would inhibit the food spoilage organisms. Usage of this bacteriocin at appropriate concentration in food needs to be studied further. Background Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are long been consumed by people in several fermented foods. Lactic acid bacteria display numerous antimicrobial activities due to the production of organic acids, bacteriocins and antifungal peptides. Bacteriocins are antibacterial proteins and posttranslational modied peptides produced by bacteria that have a bacteriocidal or bacteriostatic effect on other bacterial species (Cleveland et al., 2001). Bacteriocins are generally recognized as "natural" compounds that can inuence the safety and quality of foods. Since food safety has become an increasingly important international concern, the application of bacteriocin from lactic acid bacteria, which target food pathogens without toxic or other adverse effects, has received great attention (Cleveland et al., 2001). Though Bacteriocins could be categorized as antibiotics; they are not produced during the primary phase of growth. Bacteriocins from LAB are peptides with antimicrobial activity synthesized by ribosomes as part of their defense mechanism and potential to cover a very broad eld of application, including both the food industry and the medical sector (Vuyst and Leroy, 2007). Most of LAB bacteriocins are small (< 10 kDa) cationic, heat-stable, amphiphilic and membrane permeabilizing peptides. Nowadays usage of bacteriocins in food industry has been extensively investigated (Zacharof and Lovittb, 2012). Bacteriocins produced by LAB have the potential to cover a very broad eld of application in food industry. Usage of LAB and their metabolic products generally considered as safe (Zacharof and Lovittb, 2012). Therefore, this study was aimed to isolate of LAB from fermented food products and to screen and identify the bacterial species showing wide spectrum antibacterial activity. Results Isolation of lactic acid bacteria from fermented food products Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated by using MRS agar containing bromocresol green as an indicator for acid formation. Bromocresol green will change to yellow colour in acidic condition (Fhoula et al., 2013). Therefore, colonies with yellow colour zone were randomly picked 24–72 h intervals and streaked repeatedly on MRS agar. Resulted pure colonies were streaked on MRS agar substituted with 1% cycloheximide to conrm the presence of yeast. Twenty-ve bacterial isolates were obtained from the fermented food products such as curd, yoghurt, rice batter, dosa batter and idli batter by using of MRS agar plate substituted with 1% cycloheximide were gram positive and catalase negative. Therefore, these 25 isolates were considered as LAB bacteria. From the experiment, four LAB isolates were isolated from curd, ve from yoghurt, ve from rice batter, six from dosa batter and ve from idli batter. Detection of antibacterial activity of isolated lactic acid bacteria Results of the antibacterial activity study of the isolated LAB are explained in Table 1. The potential three bacterial genera which inhibited the highest number of food spoilage organisms were selected for further studies.

    Class Notes Class : VIII Topics: Microorganism (Extra Questions) Subject: Science Microorganism (Extra Questions) 1. It is always suggested that not to eat anything from street hawkers. Why? Ans: Most of street hawkers sells food items in an open area which always get contaminated with the dust and flies carrying germs with them. Such an unhygienic condition lead to spoilage of food which when consumed can lead to serious illness. 2. Differentiate between viruses and other microorganisms. Ans: Viruses Other microbes (i) They show the characteristics of living organ- (i) They do not need to enter any host organism to isms or reproduce only by entering the host or- reproduce or show any characteristics of life. ganisms. (ii) They are non-cellular microbes. (ii) They are cellular microbes. 3. What do you mean by food spoilage? Ans: The process in which food is deteriorated to such extent that it does not remain fit for human consumption is known as food spoilage. 4. What role does sugar play in the preservation of food? Ans: The role of sugar in food preservation is significant. By adding sugar in the food item, we reduce its moisture content and hence, it stops the growth of the microorganisms. 5. How are carriers harmful to us? Ans: Carriers take with them many harmful microorganisms or pathogens. They play a great role in transferring these pathogens to a healthy person, by sitting on the food items, or directly transferring the pathogens inside the body of a person. Hence they are harmful to us. 6. What is vaccination? Ans: The process of putting a vaccine inside the body of a person in order to produce immunity against some disease is called vaccination.

  • Rice Idli Batter Ingredients 2 Cups Rice Semolina 1 Cup Urad Dal (Soaked for 3 Hours, Then Ground to a Very Fine Thick Paste and Kept Overnight)
    Idli Ingredients urad powder 1 cup rice flour 1 cup idli rava 1 cup salt to taste pinch of rapid rise yeast water to mix Method Mix all the above ingredients without lumps to a thick pouring consistency. Let sit overnight. Next morning use the batter in exactly the same way regular idli batter is used. If the batter is too thick add a little water to bring it a thick pouring consistency. Grease the idli moulds and spoon the batter into them. Heat water in the idli cooker. Steam cook for about 12-15 mins on high. Take out from the fire and let cool for a while and then remove the idlis from the moulds. Serve hot with chutney, sambar or both. This makes about 12 idlis.
