Abstract
Glycation is an important nonenzymatic reaction between reducing sugars and amines. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) accumulation in the human body is associated with secondary complications related to diabetes in hyperglycemic environments. These observations suggest that the inhibition of AGEs formation is important for preventing diabetes mellitus (DM) progression and the development of diabetes-related complications. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are probiotics commonly used in fermented foods and food additives. Therefore, it is necessary to identify starter strains of LAB to produce fermented food to decrease the risk of DM and its complications. This chapter introduces the protocols that are inhibition assay of fermented food using LAB on AGEs such as Nω-(carboxymethyl) arginine (CMA), Nε-(carboxymethyl) lysine (CML), and fluorescent AGEs.
