Sensibilidad y Resistencia a Antibióticos de Cepas Probióticas Empleadas en Productos Comerciales

Effect of microencapsulated Lactobacillus reuteri under simulated gastric conditions and its inhibition on Listeria monocytogenes

“…It is claimed that some strains of LAB can act as reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance genes and transfer them to pathogenic bacteria. In this way, LAB can transmit resistance to the target ecosystem or niche through mobile elements (transposons or plasmids).That is why antibiotic behavior has to be evaluated to determine whether resistance is acquired and expressed by mobile elements, or by chromosomal factors that do not represent risk(May-Torruco et al, 2020) Vázquez-Ortiz et al (2022). state that, as a general rule, the bacteria of the genus Lactobacillus present intrinsic resistance against the following antibiotics: ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, vancomycin, and trimethoprim.…”
