Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a strain of Lactobacillus fermentum capable of preventing and/or treating periodontitis and an application thereof, belonging to the field of microbiology technology. The present disclosure has screened to obtain a strain of L. fermentum CCFM1139. The L. fermentum CCFM1139 can alleviate periodontitis by inhibiting formation of mixed bacterial biofilms of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia and Fusobacterium nucleatum, thereby reducing the amount of biofilm by 52.45%, and can reduce the content of TNF-? from 131.37 pg/mL to 83.31 pg/mL and IL-8 from 147.70 pg/mL to 121.12 pg/mL in a periodontitis cell model, reduce colonization of the P. gingivalis and the F. nucleatum in the oral cavity by 1-2 orders of magnitude, and reduce the amount of the alveolar bone resorption from 1838.0 ?m to 805.7 ?m.

Abstract: An anti-oxidative Lactobacillus rhamnosus CCFM1107 can relieve chronic alcoholic liver injury, and L. rhamnosus CCFM1107 can be used in preparing dairy products as starter culture. The dairy products of this invention include milk, milk powder, milk capsules or fermented milk containing L. rhamnosus CCFM1107. It has strong abilities of anti-oxidation, scavenging diphenyl picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and hydroxyl radical, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, tolerating cholate, chlorine sodium and pH, and can improve liver function and antioxidative index, lower serum endotoxin level and regulate intestinal flora distribution, thus effectively relieving alcoholic liver injury of mice.

Abstract: The invention provides a novel strain of cadmium-removing Lactobacillus plantarum bacterium, CCFM8610, which has a good tolerance to acidic environments. Lactobacillus plantarum CCFM8610 has a good tolerance to cadmium-containing medium and can effectively bind cadmium in vitro. Animal studies have shown that it can effectively reduce tissue cadmium accumulation and facilitate fecal cadmium excretion. Lactobacillus plantarum CCFM8610 has a great potential to be used as an active ingredient in cadmium-removing pharmaceutical drugs and fermented foods.

Abstract: The Lactobacillus plantarum CCFM8661 is tolerant to acid and lead ions in vitro which can tolerate lead ions solution with the initial concentration of 150 mg/L, and has a strong capability of binding lead ions, which can reduce the lead level in mice blood, liver, kidney and stomach, significantly improve antioxidant indicators and alleviate pathological symptoms of lead exposed mice.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for imaging retinal intrinsic optical signals (IOS) in vivo. According to various embodiments, imaging retinal intrinsic optical signals (IOS) may comprise illuminating a host retina with near infrared light (NIR) during a test period, wherein the host retina is continuously illuminated by the NIR light during the test period. Sequentially a host retina may be stimulated with a timed bursts of visible light during the test period. A series of images of the retina may be recorded with a line-scan CCD camera and the images may be processed to produce images of intrinsic optical signals (IOS) from retinal photoreceptor cells identified in the images.
