- Abstract
One of the requirements for probiotic strains is to adhere to epithelial cells or cell lines. The presence of S-layer proteins in three Lactobacillus plantarum strains with probiotic properties was examined as well as their ability to adhere to the epithelial monolayer model non-cancerous cell line MDCK. The three strains lacked S-layer proteins, but Lactobacillus plantarum X2 and Lactobacillus plantarum LBRZ12 adhered to the cells of MDCK, while Lactobacillus plantarum F3 didn't. Along with their other probiotic properties these make them suitable for inclusion in the composition of probiotics and probiotic foods.
