The three FSMM strains were susceptible to ampicillin, gentamycin, kanamycin, streptomycin, tetracycline and chloramphenicol, whereas they were resistant to erythromycin (minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) = 4-8 mu g/mL) and clindamycin (MIC = 4 mu g/mL); bioconversion of bile salts, hemolytic activity and mucin degradation activity were negative; enzymatic activities of -chymotrypsin and -glucosidase were detected, but those of -galactosidase, -glucuronidase and N-acetyl--glucosaminidase, were undetectable. Among the strains, strain FSMM15 was chosen as a safer probiotic candidate due mainly to the lack of plasminogen binding ability. Despite lower acid production of strain FSMM15 than others, its cell-free culture supernatant inhibited growths of Salmonella Typhimurium LT-2, Shigella sonnei, Listeria monocytogenes, and Escherichia coli O157 with comparable levels of ampicillin, suggesting a favorable aspect of strain FSMM15 as a probiotic strain.}, pages = {517--525}, title = {In vitro safety assessments and antimicrobial activities of Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains isolated from a fermented mare's milk}, volume = {88}, year = {2017} }
