UNASSIGNED: The application of nanotechnology in the agriculture and food sector is relatively recent compared to its usage in drug delivery or pharmaceuticals. Therefore, this paper presents a study of the effect of @entity575 nanoparticles on probiotic bacteria based on the example of @entity9206 LA-5, @entity9207 and @entity5858 ST-Y31 isolated from fermented milk products. Probiotic bacteria are one of the most crucial groups of bacteria for the food industry, because of their claimed health-promoting properties. Studies have shown that the type and concentration of @entity575 nanoparticle solutions have a significant impact on the tested probiotic bacteria which are profitable for the digestive system. In the presence of all tested @entity575 nanoparticles, St. @entity5858 ST-Y31 growth was inhibited significantly by the dilution method as opposed to the disk-diffusion method. Both the disk-diffusion and the dilution methods showed no significant differences between @entity9206 LA-5 and @entity9207 . The concentrations 2   g mL(-1) and 0.25   g mL(-1) had the highest antibacterial activity and statistically significant impacts on the tested probiotic strains. To our knowledge, this is the first report on potential antimicrobial effect of nanosilver against the health-promoting probiotic bacteria @entity9206 LA-5, @entity9207 and St. @entity5858 ST-Y31 isolated from fermented milk products.

Antimicrobial potential of commercial XXXX nanoparticles and the characterization of their physical properties toward probiotic bacteria isolated from fermented milk products.
