Abstract:
This study presents the evolution of a Lactobacillus
plantarum 2s strain and of a Lactobacillus acidophilus 1a
strain on media containing pollen and honey. The following parameters
were determined: CFU value, lactic acid production, sugar consumption
and presentation of the final product. The researches were performed during
72 h, in tightly closed recipients, at a temperature of 37 °C, containing
various quantities of milled or non-milled pollen (P1: 20 g non-milled
pollen, 3 g honey, 5 mL distilled water; P2: 20 g milled pollen, 3 g honey,
5 mL distilled water; P3: 20% non-milled pollen, 3% honey; P4: 20% milled
pollen, 3% honey). The media were very well homogenized before inoculation.
The inoculation was made only after the medium gained a homogenous consistency.
The inoculum consists of a 48 h culture of Lactobacillus plantarum
2s and Lactobacillus acidophilus, on LE medium, in equal proportions.
The testing of the nutritive value of the symbiotic product was made on
wistar rats, males and females, divided into lots of 10 animals each.
The animals were administered symbiotic product every day, in their food,
in intakes of 2 mg kg-1 (lot I), 20 mg kg-1 (lot
II) and 200 mg kg-1 (lot III), compared to a control. During
the 4 weeks of the experiment, no lethality cases were recorded in any
of lots, or in control. The animals involved in the experiment were examined
daily and did not present changes of appetite, of behavior or clinical
signs of disease.
