Probiotics are increasingly used as functional food ingredients. The objectives of this study were to isolate and characterise probiotic bacteria from dairy fermented foods use a selected strain for the production chèvre cheese. Tolerance acid (pH 2.0) bile salt (0.4% (w/v)) first investigated, then other properties determined. Out 241 isolates, 35 showed high tolerance salt, 6 chosen further characterisation. They Lactobacillus plantarum L. fermentum, possessed antibacterial activities...

The Bacillus cereus group frequently contaminates milk and dairy products. Some members of this can produce the heat-stable pre-formed toxin cereulide, which causes emetic foodborne intoxication. This study characterised B. isolates from raw cow’s in biochemical, genetic, toxigenic aspects. Of 158 derived 99 samples, 7 (4.43%) harboured cereulide synthetase A (cesA), encodes a associated with phenotype. Heat-treated culture filtrates cesA-positive demonstrated cytotoxicity to HepG2 Caco-2...

ABSTRACT Bacillus cereus , bacteria that commonly occur in foods, can potentially cause foodborne illness. Two important factors contribute to the illness are number of B. food and ability organism produce enterotoxins. This study investigated cells dairy cereal products Thailand, using plate count method presence diarrheal‐enterotoxin genes isolates through polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The encoding hemolysin BL (hblA, hblC, hblD), nonhemolytic enterotoxin (nheA, nheB, nheC), cytotoxin K...

Rice is one of the most important food crops in many countries, with nutritional value and health benefits. In this study, ethanolic aqueous extracts red jasmine rice from Chiang Mai, Thailand were examined for their anthocyanins phenolic contents. The antioxidant antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) 2 (HSV-2), as well anticancer activity, investigated. total content 708.03 ± 11.56 mg Cy-3-glc equivalent/g extract, determined was higher than extract. However,...

Northern Thailand, the main part of Lanna region, is home to a diverse range ethnic groups, each with their own food and cultural heritage. The bacterial compositions in fermented soybean (FSB) products indigenous three ethnolinguistic including Karen, Lawa, Shan, were investigated this study. Bacterial DNA was extracted from FSB samples subjected 16S rRNA gene sequencing using Illumina platform. Metagenomic data showed that predominant bacteria all FSBs members genus Bacillus (49.5-86.8%),...

Many indigenous fermented foods of Northern Thailand and neighbouring regions have traditionally been known for their health benefits. In this study, we explored the communities bacteria in selected which are commonly consumed among ethnic groups around Thailand, information on microbial compositions or functional properties is still limited. The food included Thua Nao (alkaline soybean product), Nham (fermented pork sausage/loaf), Nam phak Chinese cabbage) Miang leaves from Tea trees)....

In this study, we aim to investigate the efficiency of crude oil bioremediation through composting and culture-assisted composting. First, forty-eight bacteria were isolated from a oil-contaminated soil, isolate with highest degradation activity, identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, was selected. The then investigated compared between soil (S), contaminated composted fruit-based waste (SW), same addition selected bacterium (SWB). Both compost-based methods showed high efficiencies (78.1%...

Mastitis caused by bacterial infection has negative impacts on milk quality and animal health, ultimately causes economic losses to the dairy industry worldwide. Gram-negative bacteria their component lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can trigger inflammatory response of endothelial cells (ECs) subsequently promote EC dysfunction or injury, which is a critical pathogenesis mastitis-causing sepsis shock. To control minimise LPS effects ECs, we thus aimed identify potential herb extracts that comprised...
