AFB1 removal by lactabacillus plantarum in
artificially contaminated enviroment

L
actic 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.
