Antimicrobial and antiadhesive effects of Lactobacillus isolates of healthy human gut origin on Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC)

Screening of Lactic Acid Bacteria with Inhibitory Activity against ETEC K88 as Feed Additive and the Effects on Sows and Piglets

“…In a study by Sirichokchatchawan et al [16], the strain L. plantarum showed antagonistic activity against Escherichia coli; an inhibition zone diameter of 6.00-9.00 mm was considered to indicate weak inhibition (+), 10.00-13.00 mm was considered intermediate inhibition (++), 14.00-16.00 mm was considered strong inhibition (+++), and 17.00 mm or more was considered very strong inhibition (++++) by the agar well diffusion method (including the hole puncher, 6.00 mm). Pazhoohan et al [33] reported that Lactobacillus showed antagonistic activity against ETEC with an inhibition zone diameter of 27.00 mm by the same method. Wang et al [20] screened the strain L. plantarum subsp.…”

Characterisation of the probiotic potential of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum K16 and its ability to produce the postbiotic metabolite γ-aminobutyric acid

“…Amarantini, Budiarso, Antika, and Prakasita (2020) and Divyashree, Anjali, Somashekaraiah, and Sreenivasa (2021) indicated that L. plantarum isolated from different fermented foods presented antimicrobial activity against Salmonella species, which could be useful to prevent and treat food-borne illnesses. Likewise, other authors reported that L. plantarum strains highly inhibited E. coli protecting against the development of diarrhea and maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract (Ali, Shyum Naqvi, & Yousuf, 2020;Pazhoohan, Sadeghi, Moghadami, Soltanmoradi, & Davoodabadi, 2020). In this case, to ensure that L. plantarum K16 can protect against pathogenic bacteria, more research is needed.…”

Synergistic Effect of B-Type Lotus Seedpod Oligomeric Procyanidin and Probiotics against Adhesion of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli In Vitro

“…However, with the emergence of antibioticresistant pathogens, novel alternative treatment and prevention strategies for ETEC infections are being investigated. Probiotics, in particular, were considered to be one of the most promising countermeasures [7,8]. Existing studies have indicated that probiotics exert antidiarrheal efects through complex anti-infective mechanisms, such as regulation of intestinal microbiota and modulation of the host immune system [9].…”
