Objectives: Maternal probiotic supplementation has been shown to prevent the development of atopic dermatitis in the offspring. We aimed to investigate whether probiotics in pregnant and breast-feeding mothers altered the colonization pattern and the diversity of the mothers' and children's intestinal microbiota.

Methods: In a randomized, double-blind trial, women received probiotic milk or placebo from 36 weeks of gestation up to 3 months postnatally while breast-feeding. The probiotic milk contained Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, L acidophilus La-5, and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb-12. Stool samples were collected from the mothers at 30 to 36 weeks of gestation and 3 months after birth, and from the child at age 10 days, 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years, and bacteria were analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Additionally, stool samples from 3-month-old and 2-year-old children were characterized using 16S ribosomal RNA gene deep sequencing to estimate the bacterial classes and genera, and the α- and β-diversity.

Results: Three months after birth, both the prevalence and the relative abundance of the administered probiotic bacteria were significantly increased among the mothers in the probiotic group compared with among those in the placebo group. Only the Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG bacteria colonized the children at 10 days and at 3 months of age. There were no significant differences in the abundance of the administered probiotic bacteria between the groups at 1 and 2 years of age. For the bacterial classes and genera, and α- and β-diversity, there were no significant differences between the groups.

Conclusions: Different probiotic bacteria seem to have different ability to transfer from the mother to the child. We found no evidence that the probiotics altered the microbial composition or α- and β-diversity of the children.

Organic pollutants such as di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) interact with nanoplastics (NPs) and change their bioavailability and toxicity to aquatic organisms. This study aims to assess the ecotoxicological impacts of NPs in the presence and absence of DEHP on juvenile largemouth bass (LMB) Micropterus salmoides. Therefore, LMB was fed with diets containing various concentrations (0, 2, 10, and 40 mg/g) of polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPs) by the weight of diets. Read More

In this study, we investigate the interactions between the leaderless class IIb bacteriocin, enterocin DD14 (EntDD14), or the methicillin or the combination of these antibacterials, and two methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains (MRSA-S1 and USA 300) which are respectively a clinical strain and a reference strain. The results obtained showed that EntDD14 alone or in combination with the antibiotic could significantly prevent the adhesion of these pathogenic bacteria to human cells. On the other hand, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of EntDD14 on the secretion of pro-inflammatory interleukins, including IL-6 and IL-8. Read More

Introduction: The etiological factors of periodontal diseases are the habitation of dysbiotic bacteria, absence of beneficial bacteria, and susceptibility of the host. Irresolute pattern in the periodontal diseases pathogenesis leads to the evolution of novel antimicrobial therapy.

Objective: The objective of the study is to assess and compare the competency of locally delivered probiotic paste with chlorhexidine gel as a supplement to scaling and root planing (SRP) in chronic periodontitis patients. Read More

The experimental study was contrived to characterize two zinc-solubilizing bacteria (ZSB), namely BMRR126 and BMAR64, and their role in zinc (Zn) biofortification of rice. These bacteria solubilized Zn profoundly, determined qualitatively by halo-zone formation on a solid medium and quantitatively in a liquid broth by AAS and SEM-EDX. The lowering of pH and contact angle assessment of the liquid broth unveiled the establishment of the acidic conditions in a medium suitable for Zn solubilization. Read More

Lactic acid bacteria are increasingly becoming important dietary supplements due to their health benefits when consumed in adequate quantity. The increasing attention on these important microbes has necessitated an in-depth understanding of their physiological processes, such as nutritional requirements and growth patterns, to better harness their probiotic potentials. This study was carried out to determine the nutritional requirements for the growth of ZJ614 and ZJ625 from a chemically defined medium and evaluate growth kinetics by fitting different sigmoidal growth models.
