In vitro probiotic–associated, safety, and anti–listerial properties of indigenous dairy–derived lactobacilli: functional screening and virulence–related gene modulation

The search for autochthonous food–derived lactobacilli with complementary probiotic–associated and bioprotective characteristics is of considerable interest for functional food development and microbial control. In the present study, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from tradi...

Metabolic, enzymatic, and probiotic profiling of Lactococcus lactis LBM15: inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus biofilm and virulence genes, and GPR-based prediction

This study characterized a Lactococcus lactis strain (LBM15) isolated from traditional yogurt and evaluated its probiotic, antimicrobial, and anti-biofilm attributes, along with its physiological robustness and safety-associated characteristics. The isolate was identified by 16S...
