Description:
Strains identified in ovine cheese and bryndza by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight analysis belonged to ten species of non-enterococcal lactic acid bacteria and included Lactobacillus casei / Lactobacillus paracasei , Lactobacillus plantarum , Lactobacillus rhamnosus , Lactobacillus helveticus , Lactobacillus delbrueckii , Lactobacillus fermentum , Lactobacillus brevis , Lactococcus lactis , Pediococcus pentosaceus and Pediococcus acidilactici . The susceptibility toward antibiotics was determined in lactobacilli, lactococci and pediococci and also in Escherichia coli for comparison. Analysis of L. fermentum and pediococci revealed the presence of non-wild-type epidemiological cut-offs in streptomycin, clindamycin or gentamicin. E. coli were resistant to ampicillin, tetracycline, enrofloxacin and florfenicol. No extended spectrum β-lactamases were detected.
