The study aimed to evaluate lactic acid bacteria strains from fermented food for their potential as psychobiotics by producing gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Among the 268 isolates screened, five potential GABA producers were identified and further confirmed by NMR and HPLC analysis. One strain (G2) of Weissella confusa showed the highest production of GABA (246.2 mg/L) and exhibited the most prominent probiotic properties.
The study aimed to evaluate the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) producing lactic acid bacterial strains of fermented food origin to be used as potential psychobiotic. A total of 268 isolates were screened for GABA production using the pH indicator method. Five of the isolates were identified as potential GABA producers and were shortlisted further for confirmation of GABA production by NMR and HPLC analysis. One of the strains (G2), identified as Weissella confusa showed the highest production of GABA (246.2 mg/L) while the remaining strains produced only trace amounts. These five strains were assessed for safety and probiotic properties. The strain G2 exhibited the most prominent probiotic properties. It showed good tolerance towards pH(2 and 3), bile salt(0.3-1%), gastro-intestinal fluid, NaCl(1-4%), phenol(0.4-0.6%), auto-aggregation(83%), strong hydrophobicity to xylene (70%) and chloroform(78%), significant antimicrobial activity, susceptibility to antibiotics and strong adherence to Caco-2 cells. From the optimization of culture conditions for GABA production by RSM based approach, G2 was found to produce 293.33 mg/L with a 34h fermentation time, 29.1 degrees C temperature, and at 1% mono-sodium glutamate concentration. Further studies are needed to assess the efficacy and stability of the isolate in the food matrix and in vivo gut environment, to utilize it as a potential psychobiotic.
