Isolation and Characterization of Lactobacillus spp. of Human Origin for Studying their PrevalenceBy Monica Puniya, KPS Sangu, Aarti Bhardwaj, Sanjay Kumar, Tejpal Dhewa
Abstract: A total of 15 samples of healthy human feces were collected for the isolation of lactobacilli using lactobacillus selection MRS agar. Thirty-eight colonies were randomly picked based on colonial morphology. All the isolates were subjected to cell morphology, physiology and an array of biochemical characterization. The isolates showed different growth patterns at different temperatures (15 and 45 °C), oxygen and at different concentrations of NaCl (2.0, 4.0 and 6.5%). On …

Effect of Prebiotics on Growth of the Selected Lactobacilli Culture Isolated from Dairy ProductsBy Aarti Bhardwaj, Monica Puniya, K. P. S. Sangu, Sanjay Kumar, Tejpal Dhewa
Abstract: Prebiotics beneficially affects the host by selectively stimulating the growth or activity of one or limited number of bacteria such as bifidobacteria, lactobacilli in the colon that can improve the host health. Inulin and gum acacia are the most commonly available prebiotics. The ability of lactobacilli cultures (i.e. Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus casei) to utilize inulin, gum acacia, honey and fructo-oligosaccharide @ 2% for different time intervals (6, …
