Abstract

Several Bifidobacterium strains, including commercial probiotics, were screened for the production of antibacterial substances active towards Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria. Agar spot assays, microtitre plate assays, and time-kill studies were performed. Bifidobacteria were found to exert strong inhibitory activity towards Gram-negative indicator bacteria, namely Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium SL1344 and Escherichia coli C1845. The inhibitory mechanism was investigated and was shown to be dependent on the lowering of the pH of the medium and the production of organic acids, in particular acetic acid and lactic acid. The production of other antibacterial substances was examined by concentrating the cell-free culture supernatants by ammonium sulphate precipitation and chloroform/methanol extraction. The extracts of cultures of seven Bifidobacterium strains inhibited the growth of Gram-positive indicator bacteria, indicating that they produced a bacteriocin. The extract of a culture of Bifidobacterium longum BB536 was active against E. coli as well. However, the contribution of such inhibitory substances to the antibacterial activity of bifidobacteria towards Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria was found to be negligible.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
