Resistance of lactic acid bacteria isolated from dairy production with beneficial potential to effect of bile salts as determined at 0 h and 4 h in non-growing conditions (results are expressed as log₁₀ CFU/mL) and growth of LAB for 18 h after been exposed to the effect of bile salts for 4 h (results are expressed as OD 650 nm determined on microplate reader). a: Lactobacillus casei MSI1; b: L. casei MSI5; c: L. casei MRUV1; d: L. casei MRUV6; e: L. acidophilus MVA3; f: L. nagelli MSIV4; g: L. harbinensis MSI3; h: L. harbinensis MSIV2; i: L. fermentum SIVGL1; j: L. plantarum MLE5; k: L. plantarum MSI2; l: Pediococcus pentosaceus MLEV8; m: P. acidilactici MSI7; n: Weissella paramesenteroides MRUV3; o: W. paramesenteroides MSAV5. The white bars represent the counts of the LAB strains at the initial time (zero) and the grey bars represent the counts after 4 h incubated in the different bile treatments. The solid line represents the values of optical density in the different bile treatments
