Talk:Lactic acid bacteria

Untitled

Is anyone here familiar enough with the topic to make a comment about the relation to tyramine formation? One source at least stated that the lactic acid bacteria were the ones relevant to the formation of tyramine from tyrosine, and hence the problems with hypertensive crises.

Thank you for your opinion and suggestion.

These reviews are meant for readers who would like to delve deeper into the subject. The reviews are placed in the “further reading” – section because the Wikipedia guideline for this section read: “… publications that would help interested readers learn more about the article subject. The Further reading section (…) should normally not duplicate the content of the References section” (WP:FURTHER).

The Wikipedia content guideline for “Identifying reliable sources (medicine)” (WP:MEDRS) read: “It is usually best to use reviews and meta-analyses where possible.”

The reviews in question reflect the latest research (last 10 years) in the field, they are scholarly and peer-reviewed, and they are published in academic journals. Granateple (talk) 22:42, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge

The result of this discussion was to merge Lactic acid bacteria to Lactobacillales. Chhandama (talk) 11:10, 27 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A merge with Lactobacilles would be a very good move. Iztwoz (talk) 20:54, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree 138.16.2.189 (talk) 01:50, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, should have been merged into Lactobacilles. Chhandama (talk) 10:59, 27 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Lactobacillales are simply lactic acid bacteria Chhandama (talk) 11:10, 27 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article was nominated for merging with Lactobacillales on 11 December 2013. The result of the discussion was merge.

Tooth decay & Dental Caries

I am missing a section linking the LABs to the process of tooth decay. I am not aware how many of the LABs are linked or can be linked to this process, but at least the Streptococcus sobrinus, Streptococcus mutans and the entire genus of Lactobacillus are. I am currently investigating if lactic acid is the only acid involved in tooth decay. If anybody has a good source on this particular issue it will be much appreciated.

RhinoMind (talk) 14:30, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Dental Caries should be definitely mentioned. Would also be VERY interesting to know are these drinks as good for your (dental) health as claimed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soured_milk

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yogurt

Interestingly, also hard cheese like Emmental or Edam has probably a pH below 7.

Luckily, all tap water has been adjusted >7 with Calcium Carbonate for example in Finland, because pH below 7 corrodes the water pipes.

Even if something is safe for Enamel, it may not be safe for Dentin!

Lactobacillales → Lactic acid bacteria – Lactic acid bacteria is the common name; lactobacillales hardly registers on ngrams; google search shows 158K for Lactobacillales and 2 million plus for Lactic acid bacteria; Lactic acid bacteria was a long-standing page name and page refers constantly to LAB.

Support on technical grounds and move Lactobacillales (old version) to Lactobacillales. Merging "Lactic acid bacteria" and "Lactobacillales" was a mistake. The terms are not precise equivalents. Lactic acid bacteria describes the metabolism and some bacteria with this metabolism have significant human use; the metabolism and human uses are worthwhile content for an article. Sporolactobacillus is listed in the lead of this article, but it is not a member of Lactobacillales; however it is frequently described as a lactic acid bacterium in scholarly sources. It is not clear to me that "lactic acid bacteria" describes all members of Lactobacillales, at least in the sense of human uses. The lead lists 12 Lactobacillales genera that are considered "lactic acid bacteria". There are other genera in the order. Not all "lactic acid bacteria" are Lactobacillales, and not all Lactobacillales are "lactic acid bacteria". Moving this article and Lactobacillales (old version) preserves the edit history associated with these two related but non-equivalent topics. Plantdrew (talk) 17:30, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of Nicola spuriana mention

This edit re Nicola spuriana This is a cultural reference that should not be included: MOS:POPCULT and wp:COATRACK. This invites the addition of a large list of people who have a bacterium named after them. That is off-topic; not what the article is about.
