Probiotic bacteria exhibiting antagonistic activities against pathogenic bacteria are widely considered as potential options for the prevention and treatment of various infectious diseases and represent potential substitutes of antibiotics. Here we show that the AG10 strain represses the growth of and in vitro and diminishes their negative effects in vivo in a model of survival on embryonic (larvae) and pupa stages. In an agar drop diffusion test, AG10 exhibited antagonistic properties against , , and , and repressed the growth of and during milk fermentation.

Article Synopsis
  • Raw milk, meat, and plant materials are prone to contamination by pathogenic bacteria, making growth prevention a significant challenge in the food industry; fermentation using lactic acid bacteria (LAB) can help by eliminating bad microflora and suppressing pathogens.
  • Six novel LAB strains isolated from clover silage have shown strong antibacterial activity against biofilm-embedded pathogens like E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa, while also possessing beneficial probiotic properties and effectively eradicating existing biofilms.
  • The L. plantarum AG10 strain is highlighted for its potential as a starter culture in milk fermentation due to its effective probiotic capabilities and resistance to stomach conditions, aiming to reduce bacterial contamination from fouled equipment.
