Enumeration of Probiotic Lactobacillus Strains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the analysis of L. rhamnosus K3 and L. johnsonii K4 CFUs, 1 g of the puree mixtures with probiotics was added to 9 mL of sterile peptone water and homogenized with a stomacher at medium speed for 2 min. Seven-fold serial dilutions were prepared from the homogenized samples with peptone (Sigma-Aldrich, Poznań, Poland) water. Appropriate dilutions were inoculated onto MRS agar (pH 6.8 ± 7.2, Merck-110,660, Darmstadt, Germany), and Petri plates were incubated at 37 °C for 48 h. After the digestion in the gastric and intestinal phases, an aliquot of the digested sample was decimally diluted with peptone water and plated onto MRS agar plates at 37 °C for 48 h. Colony counts were calculated as CFU/g of mixtures, and the obtained means of the data were transformed to log10 CFU/g.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
T. rubrum strain CBS 119892 (WT) was kindly donated by the CBS-KNAW Fungal Collection (Westerdijk Fungal Biodiversity Institute). T. rubrum culture was carried out in Malt Extract Agar (MEA, 2 % malt extract (w/v), 2% glucose (w/v), 0.1% peptone (w/v) – Sigma Aldrich) at 28 °C. Conidia were recovered by scraping the mycelium from 15-day MEA plates flooded with sterilized 0.9% NaCl, followed by vortexing and filtration through glass wool. After centrifugation, the microconidia concentration was estimated by counting on the Neubauer chamber. Other media used in this study were: Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA - 2% dextrose (w/v), 1% peptone (w/v), pH 5.7), Minimal Medium (MM) pH 5.0 (Cove, 1966 (link)), Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA - 0.4% potato extract (w/v) (Sigma Aldrich), 2% dextrose (w/v), pH 5.7), and Keratin Medium (KM - 2.5 g/L keratin powder from hooves and horns - MP Biomedicals, pH 5.5). The solid medium contained 2% agar (w/v).

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.
