Abstract:

Lactobacillus plantarum plays an important role in probiotics as Lactobacillus species have been extensively used since decades against infectious diseases and is widely studied for their ability to protect against pathogens. This Lactobacillus plantarum is used regularly on various probiotics based food to maintain good digestion and pH of fluids secreted in colon of humans for healthy digestion. The present work aims to critically evaluate some central methods and procedure to know behaviour of L.plantarum at various ranges of pH and temperature. For this Honey bee was used for isolation of Lactobacillus plantarum. This L.plantarum was isolated from colon part of honey bee especially from rectum region of stomach. The bacteriocin isolated from Lactobacillus plantarum obtain from gut of honey bee was also used to study inhibitory effect against major human colon pathogens (shigella, E.coli, Staph.aureus and Salmonella typhimurium) and its inhibition was studied and result obtain on various basis was noted. As majority of pathogens shows inhibition against bacteriocin produced these plays a key role in treatment of various diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria and has serious effects on human’s health.
