Table 1.

The ability of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains to bind pesticides to the cell wall. The experiments were conducted for whole live LAB cells. The initial concentration of an individual pesticide was 100 µg/mL. The presented results are mean from two measurements ± standard deviation (SD). Statistical significance was calculated versus positive control (appropriate pesticide standard, 100 µg/mL), * p ≤ 0.05.
