High throughout metagenomic approach for probiotic lactic acid bacteria from camel milk

29 Sep 2014 28 Oct 2017

Lactic acid bacteria are widely distributed in different raw materials viz. milk, meat, flour, soil, water plants, silage, waste products and also in the intestinal tract of animals and humans. Camel milk is different from other ruminant milk in nutritional as well as therapeutic value and also is a rich source of proteins with potential antimicrobial and protective activities. In the proposed work, lactic acid bacteria will be isolated and characterized using molecular tools and will be monitored for their prospective probiotics properties. This study is an attempt to apply metagenomic strategies for the identification of novel LABs with possible industrial applications from camel milk.
