Abstract excerpt

In a previous study, the authors isolated lactic acid bacteria from breast milk of healthy mothers. Since some of the identified isolates belonged to the species Enterococcus faecium, the objective of this work was to evaluate their safety. The enterococcal strains were screened by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Southern hybridization for the presence of virulence determinants. The potential of the strains...
