Isolation and characterization of lactobacillus spp. isolated from breast milk of lactation mother for probiotic properties / Suhanis Nadia Salleh
Probiotics are live microorganism that can be implemented as a new approach to promote health. These organism are found to be an attractive means fur health due to their probiotic properties including the ability to tolerate bile, low pH, and generate antimicrobial activity.

description |
Probiotics are live microorganism that can be implemented as a new approach to promote health. These organism are found to be an attractive means fur health due to their probiotic properties including the ability to tolerate bile, low pH, and generate antimicrobial activity. Breast milk is a potential source of Lactobacillus spp. and one of the criteria that round beneficial is that it is human origin which could be more reliable sources. Lack of study on isolation of probiotic bacteria from breast milk were reported and some probiotic properties show a variation between strain from different region and population Also, some of the probiotics which commercially used is not found to be a promising strain for all criteria of probiotic properties. This study was conducted to isolate, and characterize Lactobacillus spp. isolated from breast milk of lactating mother to be tested fur two probiotic property tests include pH tolerance and antimicrobial activity. In this study, the isolates from breast milk expected to be Lactobacillus spp. were phenotypically and genotypic ally characterized. The isolates were initially identified by using API 50 CH kit. Further identification were executed by molecular characterization involving PCR amplification, sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. The isolates were then subjected to probiotic test include pH tolerance and antimicrobial activity. Four isolates were determined as Gram positive bacilli, catalase negative with no endospore formation Identification by API 50 CH kit revealed the isolates as Lactobacillus fermentum. PCR amplification results in separation range from 1500 bp to 2000 bp.
