• Abstract:

  Probiotics are live microorganisms that when administered in suitable

  amounts confer benefits to the host’s health, preventing colonization and invasion of

  pathogens in the intestine. Lactobacillus is one of the main probiotic agents used in the

  prevention of infections and in the restoration of the intestinal microbiota. Salmonella

  enterica serovaridad Typhimurium is an important agent causing food-borne intestinal

  infection. The objective of this work was to evaluate the protective capacity of

  Lactobacillus exopolysaccharide (EPS) against S. Typhimurium. For this purpose, the

  identification of lactobacillus and bacteriocins was performed. The results showed that

  lactobacilli were able to produce antimicrobial compounds against S. Typhimurium. Our

  results suggest that L. rhamnosus could be a potential probiotic to control salmonellosis.
