Methods for detection of antimicrobial properties of lactic acid bacteria
Vránová, Petra ; Němcová, Andrea (referee) ; Trachtová, Štěpánka (advisor)
Lactic acid bacteria are classified as probiotics producing substances that act against microorganisms. These antimicrobial substances include organic acids, carbon dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and bacteriocins. Currently, the focus is on bacteriocins, which are used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The aim of this thesis is creating an overview of antimicrobial properties of lactic acid bacteria, methods of their determination and their applications in the food industry. The experimental part deals with identification of lactic acid bacteria present in selected samples of bacterial DNA. In addition, we tested for bacteriocin Gassericin K7A-producing gene. Molecular diagnostic methods such as real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and conventional polymerase chain reaction were used to distinguish bacterial DNA as well as the bacteriocin.
