Physicochemical property and in vivo prebiotic function of α‐(1 → 2) and α‐(1 → 3)‐branched dextran derived from Leuconostoc citreum KD3

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 39-49, February 2026.
Abstract Background We isolated lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from Japanese traditional fermented foods and vegetables, and screened for exopolysaccharide (EPS)‐producing strains. The Leuconostoc citreum KD3 was isolated as a strain that produces an α‐glucan (KD3‐dextran) with α‐(1 → 6)‐linked main chain with a considerable amount of α‐(1 → 2) branches ...

Detection of the Potential Inactivation of Tetrodotoxin by Lactic Acid Bacterial Exopolysaccharide

Toxins, 2018
Screening for compounds that can neutralize the toxicity of tetrodotoxin (TTX) or reduce its negative effects is necessary. Our study tested the TTX detoxification capacity of exopolysaccharide (EPS) extracted from lactic acid bacteria.

Integration of MALDI‐TOF MS and 16S rRNA Analysis for Identification of Plant‐Based Fermentation‐Associated Microbiota

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Plant‐based fermentation matrices significantly influence microbial diversity and species‐specific proteomic adaptations. The integration of MALDI‐TOF MS and 16S rRNA sequencing with physicochemical analyses allowed for a better understanding of the impact of specific fermentation products on differences in microbial diversity and spectral protein ...

Mouse Abdominal Fat Depots Reduced by Butyric Acid-Producing Leuconostoc mesenteroides

Microorganisms, 2020
The activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated rece ptor gamma (PPAR-γ) is known to induce the differentiation of adipocytes. This study aimed to investigate the probiotic effect of Leuconostoc mesenteroides (L. mesenteroides) on high-fat diet (HFD)-

Postbiotics in Functional Foods: Microbial Derivatives Shaping Health, Immunity and Next‐Generation Nutrition

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Postbiotics are bioactive compounds derived from microbial fermentation, including short‐chain fatty acids, extracellular polysaccharides, and cell wall components. These molecules support health by regulating immune responses, enhancing gut barrier integrity, reducing inflammation, and modulating gut–brain and gut–liver communication.

Structural Characterization of Insoluble Dextran Produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL B-1149 in the Presence of Maltose

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2011
Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL B-1149 is known to produce dextran with 52 % α-(1→6) and 40 % α-(1→3) linkages. Low solubility of dextran in water is associated with the presence of high percentage of α-(1→3) linkages.

Antipneumococcal Cross Reactions of Antigens of Leuconostoc mesenteroides.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1954
Summary1. The experiments dealt with the antipneumococcal cross reactions of non-dextran antigens of two strains of L. mesenteroides. The B512-F strain, which is commonly employed in manufacture of dextran plasma volume extenders, gave reciprocal cross reactions with type 27; the other strain gave reciprocal reactions with type 32 pneumococcus.
