Phenotypic Identification of Lactic Acid Bacteria

Phenotypic identification of LAB isolates was performed by API 50 CHL (API kit, bioMérieux, France) assay. Purified LAB cultures were cultivated in 20 ml MRS broth incubated at 37 °C overnight, after which they were washed and re-suspended in API®50 CHL medium (bioMerieux®SA 69280, France). The turbidity of the suspensions was determined by the McFarland method according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Cell suspensions were inoculated into API 50 CHL strip wells and overlaid with paraffin oil to create an anaerobic condition. The strips were incubated at 37 °C. The results were recorded after 24 h and confirmed after 48 h. A positive reaction was indicated by a yellow colour except for the esculine test (black). Colour reactions were scored against a chart provided by the manufacture (De Angelis et al., 2001 (link)). The results were analysed with API WEB (bioMerieux) database version 5.0.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
