Probiotic bacteria, such as lactic acid bacteria are gram-positive organisms that can withstand various environments throughout the production and storage of the goods comprising them. Probiotic bacteria can help the host's health, when consumed in the right quantities. Isolating and identifying Ice apple bacteria strains with probiotic potential is the goal of this research. De-man Rogosa & Sharpe agar (MRS), MRS broth for isolating probiotics by streaking method, and nutritional agar were all thoroughly sterilized before use in the study. Ten different bacterial isolates were experimented with for their biochemical and cultural characteristics. Four isolates displayed antibacterial behavior with human pathogens (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus). At the same time, six showed no zone of inhibition after being tested against a range of antibiotics. The isolates were found to be members of the Lactobacillus leichmannii species after undergoing a molecular identification study (16sRNA sequencing). These probiotic activity findings prove that bacteria isolated from ice apple samples possess intriguing capabilities exhibit potential as probiotics and can enhance the storage period of fresh fruit and vegetables.
