ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to novel bacteria inhibiting halitosis or oral malodor. In particular, the present invention relates to novel lactic acid bacteria belonging to the genusWeissella, which can inhibit the proliferation of anaerobic bacteria producing volatile sulfur compounds by interacting with them and generating hydrogen peroxide under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. These lactic acid bacteria of the present invention are isolated from lactic acid bacteria naturally existing in the oral cavity of a person, and identified and deposited asWeissella cibariaCMU (Accession No.: KCTC 10650BP),Weissella cibariaCMS-1 (Accession No.: KCTC 10678BP),Weissella cibariaCMS-2 (Accession No.: KCTC 10679BP) andWeissella cibariaCMS-3 (Accession No.: KCTC 10680BP), respectively. The present invention provides the lactic acid bacteria and foods comprising the same for effectively inhibiting the proliferation of halitosis-inducing anaerobic bacteria without corrosion at teeth by using theseWeissella cibarialactic acid bacteria strains.
