In this study 60 milk samples collected from mastitic cows to isolates and identify bacterial agents. The percentage of isolates was as follows: Staphylococcus spp 52%, Bacillus spp 26%, Enteroccocispp 3%; microccus 3%, Nesseria 2%, Branhamella 3%, Clostridium 1%, Bordetella 2%, Enterobacteria 3%, Aeromonas 4%, Fusobacterium 1%. In sensitivity tests used two antibiotics Amoxicillin and Cephalexin against two highest isolates in this study (Staph spp and Bacillus spp and found: Staph. aureus and Staph. hyicus were resistant to Amoxicllin and cephlaxin relatively, Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus cereus were susceptible to Amoxicllin and cephlaxin.

Abstract The 4,6-α-glucanotransferases of the glycoside hydrolase family 70 can convert starch into isomaltooligosaccharides (IMOs). However, no thermostable 4,6-α-glucanotransferases have been reported to date, limiting their applicability in the starch conversion industry. Here we report the identification and characterization of a thermostable 4,6-α-glucanotransferase from Bacillus coagulans DSM 1. The gene was cloned and the recombinant protein, called BcGtfC, was produced in Escherichia coli. BcGtfC is stable up to 66 °C in the presence of substrate. It converts debranched starch into an IMO product with a high percentage of α-1,6-glycosidic linkages and a relatively high molecular weight compared to commercially available IMOs. Importantly, the product is only partly and very slowly digested by rat intestine powder, suggesting that the IMO will provide a low glycaemic response in vivo when applied as food ingredient. Thus, BcGtfC is a thermostable 4,6-α-glucanotransferase suitable for the industrial production of slowly digestible IMOs from starch.

Cytokine Levels

The benefits of probiotic supplementation to lactating mothers on human milk cytokines are inconclusive. Thus, we performed a comprehensive open-label pilot trial analysis of 27 human milk cytokines in lactating women with allergies (one to three months postpartum) to determine the effect of supplementation with a mixture of new probiotic strains. Participants voluntarily joined the probiotic (n = 41) or no supplementation control (n = 19) groups. The probiotic group took three probiotic tablets (Lactobacillus casei LC5, Bifidobacterium longum BG7, and Bacillus coagulans SANK70258) daily for one to three months postpartum. Milk samples were collected at one, two, and three months postpartum, and cytokine levels were measured using multiplex assays. The effects were analyzed using multivariate regression models. Eleven cytokines showed a positive rate of over 50% in the milk samples throughout testing in both groups. The positive rates of IL-1 receptor antagonist and IL-7 changed significantly with lactation progression in logistic regression models after adjusting for time and supplementation, whereas rates of other cytokines showed no significant differences. The lactational change patterns of IL-10 concentrations differed significantly between the two groups. A short-term supplementation of probiotics affects human milk cytokine levels in lactating women with a possible placebo effect still existing. Future placebo-controlled studies are needed to support these results, based on the estimated sample sizes in this study.
