Screening of probiotics and comparison of two traditional extraction methods of Danshen. (A) Antibacterial spectrum analysis of probiotics and gastrointestinal fluid tolerance. F-B4-1 (Lactobacillus Rhamnosus), F-B8-1 (Lactobacillus Plantarum), F-B9-1 (Lactobacillus Fermenti), F-B16-1 (Lactobacillus Casei), F-B12-1 (Streptococcus Thermophilus), F-B20-1 (Leuconostoc Mesenteroides), F-B25-1 (Lactobacillus Harbin), F-A1-2 (Bacillus Subtilis), F-A7-1 (Bacillus Subtillis Natto). (B) The CFU was detected after cultured for 24 h. (C) IL-6 levels were examined in the supernatant of Caco-2 cells which were pretreated with 50 ug/mL LPS for 12 h, then treated with sterilized probiotic liquid for 12 h or 24 h. All groups (NC, F-B8-1, F-B4-1, F-B9-1, F-B16-1, F-A7-1) were statistically analyzed compared with the LPS group. Statistical analysis was conducted between F-B4-1 group and other groups (F-B8-1, F-B9-1, F-B16-1, F-A7-1) at 12 h. Statistical analysis was conducted between F-A7-1 group and other groups (F-B8-1, F-B4-1, F-B9-1, F-B16-1) at 24 h. (D) Enz. (enzymolysis), Boi. (boiled). IL-6 levels were examined in the supernatant of Caco-2 cells which were pretreated with 50 μg/mL LPS for 12 h, then treated with different concentrations of the two traditional extraction methods of Danshen for 12 h or 24 h. All groups (Nor, Enz., Boi.) were statistically analyzed with the LPS group. At 24 h, 0.2 mg/mL Enz. group was compared with other treatment groups.
