This study aimed to investigate the influence of pH,heat and enzymatic treatments on the activity of antibacterial substance in MRS,skim soy milk and bovine milk media fermented by a potential probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum F6.The antibacterial activity of the culture supernatant of L.fermentum F6 was tested against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli,Listeria monocytogenes,Salmonella typhimurium,and Shigella flexneri.Different antibacterial activities were detected in MRS and milk but not in soy milk.We presumed that three kinds of probable components including organic acids,heat-stable and heat-labile proteinaceous compounds were involved in antibacterial activity of fermented MRS and milk.The influence of acids on antibacterial activity was pH-dependent and this effect multiplied with thermal treatments seemed complex.Data analyses showed various significant differences of antibacterial activity among five pathogens were observed in pH and heat treatments.The untreated fermented milk showed higher inhibitory activity to Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria than Gram-negative bacteria (P 〈 0.05),indicating antibacterial substances of fermented milk are greatly different from fermented MRS.An accurate stimulated gastrointestinal transit showed antibacterial substances would have no influence on intestinal flora.Acidic range of antibacterial substances from pH 2.0 to 6.0 can be potentially used as food biopreservatives and alternative therapeutics.
【目的】利用一株经体外筛选具有较强抗氧化活性的干酪乳杆菌干酪亚种(Lactobacillus casei subsp.casei)SY13活菌制剂和灭活制剂研究D-半乳糖所致衰老模型小鼠体内抗氧化能力。【方法】采用SY13活菌制剂和灭活制剂饲喂由D-半乳糖连续皮下注射诱导的亚急性衰老模型小鼠,以各组小鼠血清和肝组织匀浆中超氧化物岐化酶(SOD)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)的活力、总抗氧化能力(T-AOC)及脂质过氧化产物丙二醛(MDA)的含量为指标,全面评价其在小鼠体内的抗氧化能力。【结果】Lactobacillus casei subsp.casei SY13活菌制剂高、中剂量组(20、10mL·kg-1)能降低连续6周注射D-半乳糖诱发的衰老小鼠血清和肝脏组织中的MDA含量,同时提高血清和肝脏组织中GSH-Px活力以及总抗氧化能力(T-AOC),SOD活力变化不明显。【结论】SY13活菌制剂能有效提高亚急性衰老小鼠的抗氧化能力,具有一定延缓衰老的作用。
