Comparison of probiotic Lactobacillus strains isolated from dairy and Iranian traditional food products with those from human source on intestinal microbiota using BALB/C mice model.

ABSTRACT: This study compares the probiotic Lactobacillus strains isolated from dairy and Iranian traditional food products with those from human sources on intestinal microbiota using BALB/C mice model. First, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (M11), Limosilactobacillus fermentum (19SH), Lactobacillus acidophilus (AC2), and Lactobacillus gasseri (52b) strains, isolated from either Iranian traditionally fermented products or human (healthy woman vaginal secretions), identified with molecular methods and selected based on the surface hydrophobicity, auto- and co-aggregation, were investigated for their probiotic properties and compared with their standard probiotic strains in vitro. The native strains and their mixtures (MIX) were then orally fed to five groups of female inbred BALB/C mice over the cours
