Abstract:

Lactic acid bacteria are wide microorganism group that has numerous different species inside. These microorganisms are mainly responsible for lactic acid production with their glucose metabolism used in food industry as starter and biopreservative cultures. A group of lactic acid bacteria named as probiotics are natural part of gut microbiota due to the ability of surviving harsh conditions in digestive system and their high binding capabilities to the colon enterocytes. This superior microorganism group is used for functional food supplement in diet and plays key roles in gut health and sustains gut immune system. Humans get exposed to many carcinogens exogenous or endogenous in origin related with the diet, dietary habits, lifestyle or occupational hazards. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is the most carcinogenic mycotoxin whose main source is cereals and dairy products (as by-product AFM1). The gut is the last stop of these toxins before the circulation system. So inactivation of this genotoxins in gut is important to prevent many diseases. Nowadays in vivo and in vitro studies show that lactic acid bacteria and probiotics are able to remove and/or neutralize these aflatoxins effectively. The aim of this study is to show recent developments in the detoxification of AFB1 by probiotics, detoxification mechanism and its efficacy.
