Background: Bovine mastitis is a common udder disease in cattle, mainly caused by bacteria and other infectious agents. Traditionally antibiotics are used for their treatment, but the development of antibiotic resistance has increased the importance of using non antibiotic alternative such as probiotic. In current study a previously in vitro characterized isolate Lactobacillus plantarum CM49 infused into two groups of cattle suffering from clinical mastitis (n = 5) and sub-clinical mastitis (n = 5).
Results: The bacterial composition and diversity analysis of milk samples before and after probiotic administration was analyzed using 16S rRNA gene base metagenomic analysis and lactobacillus counts were also evaluated using Real time PCR. The results show that there was an increase in abundance of Proteobacteria and decrease in Firmicutes at phylum level in both groups while major mastitogens genera Staphylococcus and Streptococcus abundance was reduced after treatment in sub-clinical mastitis group (SCMG) and clinical mastitis group (CMG) respectively. Lactobacilli counts evaluated through Real time PCR showed an increase in number, furthermore diversity indices showed an increase in diversity after treatment with probiotic.
Conclusion: It is concluded from the results that Lactobacillus plantarum CM49 may serve as promising candidate for improving dysbiosis resulting from mastitis and improving microbial diversity.

Background: To address the severe health risks posed by aflatoxin B (AFB) in grain, this study employed polydopamine-based atom transfer radical polymerization (p-ATRP) and cytochrome C-catalyzed atom transfer radical polymerization (c-ATRP) as cytocompatible modification techniques to coat the surface of living Lactobacillus plantarum (LAB) cells with the temperature-sensitive polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm).
Results: Two novel bioadsorbents were synthesized. The incorporation of PNIPAAm as an 'AFB vacuum cleaner' layer significantly enhances LAB's adsorption efficiency and enables temperature-controlled desorption.
Objective: this trial aimed to determine the effects of probiotic supplementation on weight loss and lipid profiles in hypercholesterolemic obese patients.
Methods: ın this pilot randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, hypercholesterolemic obese patients (BMI = 30.0-35.

The human skin hosts a complex ecosystem of microorganisms, collectively termed the skin microbiota. This intricate skin microbial community plays a pivotal role in human health and disease. Microbes interact with the host skin cells and immune cells through microbial products such as metabolites and secreted proteins.

Purine is a major factor contributing to the development of hyperuricemia and gout, and it is found in large quantities in Huangjiu as free bases. Purine production in Huangjiu is strongly associated with microbial metabolism. However, to the best of our knowledge the microorganisms responsible for and the mechanisms of purine formation during Huangjiu fermentation are yet to be evaluated.

This study explores the potential of artificial microbial consortia to enhance rapeseed meal nutritional value. A novel four-species microbial consortium consisting of Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus plantarum and two screened glucosinolates-degradation strains Erwinia tasmaniensis and Enterococcus gallinarum was constructed for nutritional value improvement in rapeseed meal. Results demonstrated significant reductions in the concentrations of glucosinolates (86.
