ABSTRACT
Potential probiotic bacteria can be used as a biotherapeutic agent and a sustainable alternative to antibiotics, as an anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic agent without causing any serious side effects. Mostly human-friendly Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been isolated from the animal-human origin to be used as biotherapeutic agents or to produce useful metabolites (nutraceutical). However, less information is known about the role of medicinal plants associated LAB as biotherapeutic agents. The isolation of 115 human-friendly Lactobacillus strains was done from the rhizosphere of the medicinal plants Ocimum tenuiflorum, Azadirachta indica, Ficus carica. The obtained bacteria were then tested for their safe status before being using it for a beneficial purpose. Out of 115 strains, 29 (25%) were negative for blood hemolytic activities. Among these 29 isolates, three isolates did not show a breakdown of gelatin and were recognized as safe. Antibiotic resistance assay showed resistance of two of them against antibiotics discs of Streptomycin (10 µg), Ciprofloxacin (20 µg), Vancomycin (30 µg), Metronidazole (10 µg), Ampicillin (5 µg), Chloramphenicol (30 µg), Kanamycin (30 µg), Erythromycin (15 µg), Penicillin (10 µg) and Tetracycline (30 µg). The bacterial isolate (T-2) was found safe that was identified as Lactobacillus agilis by sequence analysis of 16 s rRNA gene and processed in vitro as an anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory agent. Free radical scavenging activities and inhibition of α-amylase activities for Lactobacillus agilis were found relative to standard drug values as 68% and 73% and 51.3% and 65.3%, respectively. The in-vitro anti-inflammatory assay showed 61.6% (Lactobacillus agilis) while showed 69% (aspirin) activity for denaturation albumin protein. The results suggested that Lactobacillus agilis can be used as a potential probiotic strain as well as can be used to produce nutraceuticals.
