Present study was carried out to evaluate a new bacterial strain, F22 as probiotic strain. F22 was isolated from a traditional inoculum called 'Phab' which is used for the preparation of a traditional beverage chhang of Lahaul and Spiti of Himachal Pradesh. The isolate was identified by conventional and molecular techniques and tested for different probiotic properties. The 16S rRNA sequence of the isolate was registered in National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) under accession number . Further, F22 was evaluated for its probiotic potential viz., autoaggregation capacity, hydrophobicity, acidity tolerance, antibiotic susceptibility and cumulative probiotic potential and was found to possess good probiotic potential with a cumulative probiotic score of 91.7%. F22 has been proved to be highly effective, therefore can be recommended for the development of new pharmaceuticals and functional food preparations.

Depression is one of the most disabling mental disorders worldwide and characterized by symptoms including worthlessness, anhedonia, sleep, and appetite disturbances. Recently, studies have suggested that tryptophan (Trp) metabolism plays a key role in depressed mood through serotonin and kynurenine pathway involving enzyme tryptophan 5-monooxygenase (TPH) and indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) respectively. Moreover, during neuroinflammation, IDO is activated by proinflammatory cytokines and affects neurogenesis, cognition, disturbed hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, and gut homeostasis by altering the gut bacteria and its metabolites like Trp derivatives.
