Determination Of Probiotic Potentials Of Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated From Traditional Fermented Foods.
ABSTRACT
This study investigated the determination of probiotic potential of Lactic Acid Bacteria from traditional fermented foods. A total of 34 Lactic Acid Bacteria were identified, characterized and isolated. The study found out that LAB count were 9 Lactobacillus plantarum and Streptococcus species, having the highest and the lowest counts respectively. Most isolates (5) were present in Ogi, tomatoes and Ugba and Lactococcus lactis was the most tolerant to the heat treatment at 10, 30 and 60 minutes respectively while Streptococcus species have the lowest bile salt tolerance after exposure for 3 and 4 hours respectively. These results proved that lactobacillus which can be isolated from fermented foods are good sources of probiotics and thus recommend the uses of probiotic LAB and their application because probiotics can be of many health benefits to humans.
