Probiotic, antimicrobial and anticancer properties of Lysinibacillus macroides, Kurthia huakuii, and Enterococcus faecium isolated from freshwater snail gut microbiota.

Background: The composition and roles of intestinal microbial populations have been clarified including mammals and humans however, less is understood concerning the gut microbiota of mollusks. For the first time, we investigated non-parasite transmitting freshwater snails Lanistes carinatus (L. carinatus), Cleopatra bulimoides (C.

Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Elizabethkingia miricola isolated from wastewater have biodegradable activity against fluoroquinolone.

Ciprofloxacin (CIP) and levofloxacin (LEV), widely used fluoroquinolone antibiotics, are often found in sewage from the sewage treatment plants and marine environment. In this study, CIP and LEV biodegrading bacterial consortia were obtained from industrial wastewater. Microorganisms in these consortia were identified as Acinetobacter baumannii (A.
