Introduction | Enterococcus are lactic acid bacteria; LAB comprising both pathogenic and commensal microorganisms ubiquitous in environment even as gut symbionts. They are extensively studied as potential candidate probiotics. Several number of Enterococcus strains have been reported to produce antimicrobial compounds including bacteriocins. Bacteriocin production have be applied to preservation of a wide range of food products and is now being considered as a probiotic trait. Besides, bacteriocins are considered as promising alternative to fight emerging antimicrobial resistance. Enterococcus probiotics can be used in treatment and/or prevention of certain human and animal diseases such as alleviation of irritable bowel syndrome symptoms and antibiotic-induced diarrhea and prevention of different functional and chronic intestinal diseases. Moreover, some Enterococcus exhibit anticarcinogenic, hypocholesterolemic, as well as immune regulation effects. |
Alternative Names | Enterococcus faecium; 37593 |
Enterococcus faecium; 37593 is cultured in a nutrient-rich medium suitable for Enterococci. The culture conditions typically include incubation at 37°C in an anaerobic environment. It is important to follow aseptic techniques to avoid contamination and ensure the viability of the bacterial strain.
Yes, Enterococcus faecium; 37593 can be used in in vivo studies to investigate its effects on host organisms. Animal models are often employed to study its impact on gut microbiota, immune response, and overall health. Researchers must adhere to ethical guidelines and obtain necessary approvals for animal experimentation.
Enterococcus faecium; 37593 is commonly used in probiotic research to evaluate its efficacy in improving gut health, enhancing the immune system, and preventing pathogenic infections. Studies often focus on its ability to produce antimicrobial substances, modulate the gut microbiome, and its potential therapeutic applications.
The genomic analysis of Enterococcus faecium; 37593 involves sequencing its DNA to identify genes responsible for its probiotic properties and antimicrobial resistance. Techniques such as whole-genome sequencing and comparative genomics are employed to gain insights into its genetic makeup and functional capabilities.
Challenges in using Enterococcus faecium; 37593 include maintaining its viability during storage, preventing contamination, and ensuring reproducibility of results. Additionally, the interpretation of its effects in complex biological systems can be complicated due to interactions with other microbial and host factors.
