Abstract

Hyperuricemia, a condition characterized by elevated levels of uric acid in the blood, is known as a risk factor for gout disease. In this study, we isolated a total of 72 MRS-grown colonies and evaluated their purine nucleosidase (PNase) activity. Among the isolated bacteria, Levilactobacillus (L.) brevis LAB42 displayed the highest PNase activity. Our findings also indicate that PNase activity can vary among lactic acid bacterial strains and during different growth phases. Based on the kinetics study, LAB42 consistently exhibits the highest PNase activity. Due to its ability to attach to Caco-2 cells and its resistance to acidic environments and bile exposure, L. brevis LAB42 was chosen for further studies and showed that with the right combination of additives, it has the potential to be an appropriate starter for milk fermentation.
