TL;DR
This study identifies six lactic acid bacteria strains from Sayram yogurt that produce high exopolysaccharides and show strong probiotic properties.
Contribution
The study systematically evaluates and identifies high EPS-producing LAB strains with strong in vitro probiotic potential from traditional Sayram yogurt.
Findings
Six strains showed strong acid, bile salt, and gastrointestinal fluid tolerance.
The strains exhibited high self-aggregation and surface hydrophobicity.
Cell-free supernatants inhibited Staphylococcus aureus and showed strong antioxidant activity.
Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are bioactive polymers with significant potential for human health. This study aimed to isolate and systematically evaluate the in vitro probiotic properties of high exopolysaccharide-producing LAB strains from traditional Sayram yogurt. From fifteen strains, six strains with high exopolysaccharide production were identified using 16Sr DNA sequencing. We assessed their probiotic potential by testing acid resistance, bile salt tolerance, tolerance to artificial gastrointestinal fluid, self-aggregation, hydrophobicity, safety, antibacterial activity, and antioxidant capacity. Results showed these six strains exhibited a strong tolerance to acid, bile salts, and artificial gastrointestinal fluids, and had high self-aggregation abilities and surface hydrophobicity. The isolated strains exhibited varying degrees of sensitivity…
