Lactobacillus acidophilus M92, Lactobacillus plantarum L4 and Enterococcus faecium L3 were previously selected as probiotic strains on the base of in vitro selection criteria. To investigate functional properties of these three probiotic strains in vivo, Swiss albino mice were used as animal model. Survival, competition, adhesion and colonization were monitored in the gastrointestinal tract, as well as the immunomodulating capability of L. acidophilus M92, L. plantarum L4 and E. faecium L3. During the feeding of mice with probiotic strains with daily dose of 2 x 10(10) rifampicin-resistant cells, the number of lactic acid bacteria in the faeces increased and reduction of enterobacteria and sulphite-reducing clostridia was observed. Rifampicin-resistant colonies of probiotic strains could be reisolated from the faeces of mice fed with the rifampicin-resistant cells. The similar results were obtained in homogenates of small and large intestine of mice on the first and fourteenth days after feeding with L. acidophilus M92, L. plantarum L4 and E. faecium L3. The adherence of the probiotic strains obtained in vitro correlated with their capability to adhere to mouse ileal epithelial cells in vivo. After oral immunization of mice with viable cells of L. acidophilus M92, L. plantarum L4 and E. faecium L3 with a daily dose of 2 x 10(10) cells, the concentrations of serum IgA, IgG and IgM antibodies from all groups of mice were significantly higher in comparison to the control.
