Lactic Acid Bacteria in Chinese Sauerkraut: Its Isolation andIn Vitro Probiotic Properties

Probiotics have been widely explored for their potential in managing hyperuricemia. However, their isolation and identification are fundamental prerequisites for practical application. In this study, 254 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains were isolated from Chinese sauerkraut and screened for probiotic potential based on genomic and pheno- typic characteristics, as well as nucleoside-degrading activity relevant to decrease serum urate. Among them, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (L. plantarum)...
