Arevik L. Israyelyan*

ABSTRACT

It was shown that the strains of LAB which isolated from milk of different domestic animals (donkey) of Republic of Armenia and Republic of Artsakh have differ species and genus affiliation, as well as different physiological, antibacterial and probiotic properties. Cultural liquid was purificated by method of gel filtration. Antimicrobial preparations (AMP) were obtained from culture liquids, which had different efficacy inhibition the growth of antibiotic-resistant strains. The selected strains are mainly represented by the genus of Enterococcus and may have perspective for further as biopreservation in food industry.

Keywords: Endemic lactic acid bacteria, donkey's milk, probiotic, AMP.
