Izolation and identification of DNA from probiotic bacteria in complex matrices
Balogová, Petra ; Horák, Daniel (referee) ; Rittich, Bohuslav (advisor)
Nowadays, probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and bifidobacteria are plentifully exploited in food processing industry. LAB and bifidobacteria are important part of microflora of gastro intestinal tract (GIT). Probiotics (most often just lactobacilli and bifidobakteria) can be supplied to the GIT of the organism like food complements. Species identification is therefore very important. New methods of identification of LAB and bifidobacteria are based on analysis of DNA. Mostly exploited method is polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In my diploma work, genus and species specific PCRs were used for identification of different species of bacteria of genus Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium in complex matrices of six food supplements (Zenflo, Linex Forte, Probian, Nutra Bona, GS lactobacillus Forte, Pangamin Bifi plus). Total DNA was isolated from crude lysates of cells present in tablets by magnetic particles coated by carboxyl groups . The preparation of cell lysates was optimalised. Different amounts of lysozyme (3 mg/ml, 10 mg/ml), time of incubation at laboratory temperature (1,5 hour, 3 hour) and time of incubation with SDS and proteinase K at 55 °C (1 hour, 3 hour, over all night) were tested. Isolated DNA was quantified and checked in PCR. Primers specific for genus Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium and for species Lb. acidophilus, Lb. casei, Lb. rhamnosus and Lb. plantarum and B. animalis, B. bifidum, B. infantis, B. longum were used, respectively. All identified bacteria were in accord with the data declared by producer in 3 food supplements (Zenflo, Linex Forte and Pangamin Bifi Plus). The genus indentification was in accord with declaration of producer in other food products only (Probian, Nutra Bona, GS Laktobacily Forte).
