Abstract

Six strains of lactic bacteria and seven strains of acetic bacteria which were isolated from fermented food. The screening secured one strain of lactic acid bacterium LB4 which carried strong probiotic activity and one strain of acetic acid bacterium AB7 which was capable to generate high glucuronic acid. Activities of probiotic and glucuronic acid were useful biological activities for health protection and enhancing. The results of DNA sequencing showed LB4 was similar to Lactobacillus acidophilus and AB7 was similar to Gluconacetobacter nataicola with 100% of similar proportion. Both of these bacteria were safe that could be used in food fermentation. Keywords: probiotic, glucuronic acid, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Gluconacetobacter nataicola.
