L.acidophilus participates in intestinal inflammation induced by PM < sub > 2.5 < /sub > through affecting the Treg/Th17 balance
In this study, four different types of PM2.5 exposure models are established to determine the occurrence of PM2.5 induced intestinal inflammation. In view of the abnormal expression of lymphocytes detected in the model and the well-known fact that the intestine is the largest immune organ, we focused on the intestinal immune system. A combined regulatory T cell (Treg) transplantation experiment demonstrated that PM2.5 induced intestinal inflammation by affecting the imbalance of regulatory T cell/T helper cell 17 (Treg/Th17). Since the intestine has the highest microbial content, and the results of the 16 S rDNA third-gene...

Modelling inactivation kinetics of free and encapsulated probiotic cells in millet biscuit under different baking conditions
Food Res Int. 2023 Dec;174(Pt 1):113573. doi: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113573. Epub 2023 Oct 29.ABSTRACTThe rising popularity of probiotic food in the diet for improved health benefits leads to the development of new probiotic functional foods. In general, biscuit is a long-shelf-life snack product that can be consumed straight from the pack without further processing. Although the development of probiotic bakery products is an innovative approach to market expansion, the infusion of probiotics in biscuits to produce probiotic biscuits has not been explored because of the complexity of the baking process. Therefore, this stu...

The effect of bovine trypsin on dental biofilm dispersion: an in vitro study
AbstractTo investigate the degradation effect of bovine trypsin on multispecies biofilm of caries-related bacteria and provide an experimental foundation for the prevention of dental caries. Standard strains ofS.mutans,S. sanguis,S. gordonii, andL. acidophilus were co-cultured to form 24  h, 48 h, and 72 h biofilms. The experimental groups were treated with bovine trypsin for 30 s, 1 min, and 3 min. Morphological observation and quantitative analysis of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), live bacteria, and dead bacteria were conducted using the confocal laser scanning m icroscope (CLSM). The morphological chan...

The analysis of Lactobacillus spp. distribution in the vaginal microbiota of Polish women with abnormal Pap smear result
This study aimed to compare the prevalence and abundance of various lactic acid bacteria species (LABs) in vaginal swabs from healthy controls and patients with abnormal Pap smear results.MethodsThe study included 100 women (79 patients with abnormal cervical Pap smear results and 21 controls) from whom vaginal swabs were collected. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to determine seven lactic acid bacteria (LAB) species and their quantities.ResultsMost patients were colonized by two Lactobacillus species, primarily Lactobacillus gasseri (93%) and L. crispatus (83%). Patient age and place of residence were associated with ...

Visual outcome of 25 Gauge vitrectomy for acute post operative infectious endophthalmitis
CONCLUSION: Emergency 25-G minimally invasive vitrectomy can improve visual acuity and decrease the reoperation rate for patients who have acquired post-cataract infectious endophthalmitis. There were significant correlations between age, disease onset to operation time, preoperative and postoperative visual acuity, and postoperative macular thickness.PMID:37840508 | DOI:10.3233/THC-230607 (Source: Technology and Health Care)
