Pediococcus pentosaceus was isolated from soak pig's ear. They are coccus shaped microbes, Gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore forming, and are categorized as a "lactic acid bacteria". Pediococcus pentosaceus are able to grow in pH values between 4.5 and 8.0. Pediococcus are unique in that they form tetrads.

Introduction | Pediococcus is a genus of Gram-positive lactic acid bacteria, belonging to the family of Lactobacillaceae. The genus Pediococcus consists of the following species: P. acidilactici, P. pentosaceus, P. damnosus, P. parvulus, P. inopinatus, P. halophilus, P. dextrinicus, and P. urinaeequi. Pediococcus spp. cells are spherical and arranged in tetrads. They are facultative anaerobes, non motile and non sporulating. The known pediocins from P. acidilactici, P. pentosaceus and P. damnosus strains are mostly small, hydrophobic proteins. Food application of pediocins can provide a good alternative means in protecting food against foodborne pathogens. Being mild antimicrobials, pediocins are also expected in the future to find more applications in both human and veterinary medicine. P. pentosaceus, a promising strain of lactic acid bacteria; LAB, is gradually attracting attention, leading to a rapid increase in experimental research. |
Alternative Names | Pediococcus pentosaceus; g-SL-1 |
To revive Pediococcus pentosaceus; g-SL-1 from a frozen state, thaw the cryovial rapidly at 37°C and immediately transfer the contents to an anaerobic growth medium. Incubate under anaerobic conditions to ensure optimal recovery and viability of the bacteria.
The metabolic activity of Pediococcus pentosaceus; g-SL-1 can be studied using techniques such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to analyze metabolite production. These methods help in understanding the metabolic pathways and their implications for human health.
To maintain the viability of Pediococcus pentosaceus; g-SL-1, it should be stored at -80°C in cryoprotectant solutions such as glycerol. Proper storage conditions are crucial to preserving the bacterial strain's integrity and functionality for future research applications.
Colonization efficiency can be assessed by administering Pediococcus pentosaceus; g-SL-1 to animal models and analyzing fecal samples using quantitative PCR (qPCR) and culture-based methods to measure bacterial load and distribution within the gut.
The probiotic potential of Pediococcus pentosaceus; g-SL-1 can be evaluated in vitro using co-culture systems with intestinal cell lines. Researchers can monitor changes in cell viability, cytokine production, and barrier function to assess the bacterium's beneficial properties.
