Article Synopsis
- Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are essential for improving the texture and stability of yoghurt and can also be used to create a fermented coconut beverage for lactose-intolerant individuals.
- The study investigated a LAB strain from yoghurt for its EPS production, probiotic benefits, and antioxidant properties, utilizing various scientific methods for characterization and evaluation.
- The LAB strain produced a significant amount of EPS with key functional groups, and demonstrated antioxidant activity and moderate tolerance to challenging conditions, indicating its potential application in probiotic food products.
Mycosynthesis of silver nano-scale particles by fungi is an important aspect in nanotechnology due to its eco-friendly, safe, and cost-effective nature. It also provides protein-capped nanoparticles, which are very stable and have good dispersion. The Mycosynthesis of silver nano-scale particles (SNPs) by Trichoderma asperellum Filtrate (TAF) was evaluated.
