Article Synopsis
- Ten lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from fermented foods due to their anti-α-glucosidase activity, with potential applications in dietary supplements for managing carbohydrate metabolism disorders and chronic diseases.
- Through 16s-rRNA sequencing, several LAB strains were identified, and they showed promising probiotic traits, including anti-pathogenic activity, hydrophobicity, and resistance to gastric acid.
- Among the isolates, strains 817 and 858 displayed the highest α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, suggesting they could be beneficial in nutraceuticals for lowering blood sugar, while all isolates have potential for commercial probiotic applications despite varying colonization abilities in the gut.
