Isolation, identification and antimicrobial activity of lactic acid bacteria from the Bahía Blanca Estuary

This study analyzed the biodiversity of lactic acid bacteria present in the Bahía Blanca Estuary and their antimicrobial activity against pathogens associated with the cultivation of salmonid. A total of 21 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains were isolated from superficial sediments and fish of the e...
