Lactobacillus salivary LSbg3 is a Potential Food Probiotic Having Excellent Anti-pathogen Effect That Might Improve...

Antibiotics may disrupt the intestinal microbiota balance and induce antimicrobial resistance. Although probiotics should be a priority treatment for animal diarrhea, it still has chance to be used as same/or behind as antibiotics in the clinic. Among the probiotics, Lactobacillus (Lact.) was the most frequently utilized in clinical setting since its excellent ability of safety, anti-pathogen, stress resistance, and easy colonization in intestine. In this study, we screened 24 strains of Lact. in the presence of antibiotics from clinical common antibiotic-treated feces, identified L. salivarius LSbg3 exhibiting good stress resistance, potent antibacterial activity, and exceptional intestinal adhesion capability. Its genome showed a good function of regulating intestinal nutrition while lack of transmission antibiotic-resistance genes. Additionally, in a simulated canine diarrhea with failed antibiotic treatment, LSbg3 had a good efficacy in the releasing diarrhea, balancing the microbiome and suppressing typical pathogens, positioning a potential food probiotic have excellent effect on anti-pathogen that can effectively improve antibiotic-resistant diarrhea in dogs.
