Induction of superoxide anion radical scavenging capacity in Japanese white radish juice and milk by Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from aji-narezushi and kaburazushi

Antioxidant activity of Lactobacillus plantarum strains isolated from traditional Chinese fermented foods

“…The potential benefits of LAB for human health include stimulation of the immune system, balancing intestinal flora, reducing serum cholesterol, and reducing the risk of tumours, etc. Lately, some LAB strains have been found with other important biological functions, such as anti-ageing and antioxidant activities (Ayeni et al, 2011;Kuda, Kaneko, Yano, & Mori, 2010;Lee et al, 2010). Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG was found to inhibit lipid peroxidation in vitro due to iron chelation and superoxide anion scavenging ability (Ahotupa, Saxelin, & Korpela, 1996).…”

Anti-glycation properties of the aqueous extract solutions of dried algae products and effect of lactic acid fermentation on the properties

“…We previously reported that the fermentation by several Lb. plantarum strains isolated from the Satoumi region induced the superoxide anion radical-scavenging and anti-inflammation capacities in MRS broth, Japanese white radish, milk, and soybean milk (Kawahara et al, 2015;Kuda et al, 2010).…”

“…Some LABs can increase the antioxidant capacities of vegetables, milk, and soy milk during the fermentation (Kanno et al, 2012;Kawahara et al, 2015;Kuda, Kaneko, Yano, & Mori, 2010). The anti-glycation properties of the probiotics Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium infantis were recently reported (Stancu, Sanda, Rogoz, & Sima, 2012).…”

Antioxidant Therapies for Hypolipidemia and Hyperglycemia

“…Several studies demonstrated that some lactobacilli possess antioxidative activity, and could decrease the risk of accumulation of reactive oxygen species during the ingestion of food (Ito, et al, 2003;Kuda et al, 2010). However, probiotic bacteria must be resistant to the acidity of the stomach, lysozyme, bile, pancreatic enzymes.…”
