Abstract

Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the quality control of PROBIOTIC products marketed in retails in Isfahan, Iran, in terms of the number of viable LACTOBACILLUS count in comparison to non-probiotic dairy product. In addition, the isolated strains were studied in terms of the manufacturers’ claim of using LACTOBACILLUS acidophilus.Methods: PROBIOTIC products (n=14) and non-probiotic products (n=8) of commercial dairy brands were sampled from Isfahan market. Serial dilutions were made using normal saline, and surface plate count agar was carried out by inoculation of 100 μl of concentrations on the MRS (de-Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe) plates containing cysteine hydrochloride. After incubation and counting of colonies, 6 colonies with different morphological characteristic were sampled and purified from each plate. Double purification step was performed for the selected isolates in the MRS culture media with bromocresol green and cysteine hydrochloride. To separate PROBIOTIC and non-probiotic strains, growth test against X-Gal was used. Findings: Among the PROBIOTIC products, the average number of lactobacilli in yoghurt, kefir, and cheese was counted as 5.7 Log CFU, 6.32 Log CFU, and 6.27 Log CFU, respectively. Among non-probiotic products, an average LACTOBACILLUS population of 5.22 Log CFU, 3.6 Log CFU, and 3.62 Log CFU was found in yoghurt, doogh, and cheese, respectively. Only 5 PROBIOTIC labeled dairy products out of 14 tested samples (35%) were shown to contain the lactobacilli isolates capable of growth under bile containing MRS.Conclusion: In conclusion, although the average count of viable lactobacilli in commercial PROBIOTIC products appeared to be slightly higher than that of non-probiotic dairy products, yet, this index differs greatly from the standards in the majority of the products offered in the market as PROBIOTIC foods. Particularly, commercial PROBIOTIC yogurts were shown to have lower L. acidophilus count than the standard level.
