Abstract:

Lactic acid bacteria whose most of the member belong probiotics are subjected to many research related with their anti-carcinogenic properties. Lactobacillus plantarum is typically responsible for “plant” fermentation including pickle and olive fermentations. Due to their widespread existence in the human and animal diet leaded to gain attraction. In this study, we aimed to investigate that the AFB1 removal property of indigenous isolate of L. plantarum. L. plantarum (109 cells/mL) was co-incubated with 5ppm AFB1 containing PBS and samples were collected 0, 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours and immediately analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography equipped with fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD) without extraction step. L. plantarum cell viability did not change during the co-incubation. HPLC-FLD results showed us L. plantarum cells significantly (75.93% ±3.43) reduced the AFB1 at 12h. This decontamination was not formed any by-product. Thus L. plantarum is capable of AFB1 removal in artificially contaminated environment safely and may prevent chronical exposure in gut before reaching the kidney.
