    Lactic acid bacteria were isolated from traditional Thai-fermented foods. Among these, the strain LNP1-39, closely related to Lactiplantibacillus pentosus, was selected for further study because of its non-pathogenic profile. The bacteriocins produced by L. pentosus LNP1-39 were proteinaceous substances that exhibited strong antimicrobial activity across a wide pH range (pH 2–11; 6400–2400 AU/mL) and thermal stability at 100 °C for 40 min (400 AU/mL). These bacteriocins showed a narrow antimicrobial spectrum, effectively targeting Gram-positive pathogens, such as Kocuria rhizophila MIII, Enterococcus faecalis JCM 5803<sup> T</sup>, and Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 19115. Comprehensive safety assessments, including whole-genome analysis and in vitro tests, confirmed a low risk of antibiotic resistance and the absence of virulence factors. Strain LNP1-39 was confirmed to be closely related to L. pentosus DSM 20314<sup> T</sup> via digital DNA‒DNA hybridization (dDDH; 75.4%), with average nucleotide identity (ANI) at 96.56% ANIb and 97.22% ANIm values. Additionally, LNP1-39 produces pediocin with notable similarity (76.29% identity to pediocin) and presents low risks for antibiotic-resistance genes or transfer genes while providing antioxidant properties. Strain LNP1-39 survived harsh gastrointestinal tract conditions and exhibited a favorable prebiotic index and positive prebiotic activity score when paired with polydextrose or isomalto-oligosaccharide. These findings support L. pentosus LNP1-39 as potential bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria for further application in food preservation and pathogen control or as a synbiotic.

    Helicobacter pylori, linked to gastric diseases, is targeted for probiotic treatment through bacteriocin production. Bacteriocins have gained recognition for their non-toxic effects on host cells and their ability to combat a wide range of pathogens. This study aimed to taxonomically characterize and evaluate the safety and probiotic properties of the novel species of Lactococcus sp. NH2-7C isolated from fermented pork, as well as its bacteriocin NH2-7C, both in vitro and in silico. Comparative genotypic analysis revealed an average nucleotide identity of 94.96%, an average amino acid identity of 94.29%, and a digital DNA-DNA hybridization value of 63.80% when compared to Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis JCM 5805<sup>T</sup>. These findings suggest that strain NH2-7C represents a novel species within the genus Lactococcus. In silico assessments confirmed the non-pathogenic nature of strain NH2-7C and the absence of genes associated with virulence and biogenic amine formation. Whole-genome analysis revealed the presence of the nisA gene responsible for nisin A production, indicating its potential as a beneficial compound with anti-Helicobacter pylori activity and non-toxic characteristics. Probiotic assessments indicated bile salt hydrolase and cholesterol assimilation activities, along with the modulation of interleukin-6 and tumour necrosis factor-α secretion. Strain NH2-7C demonstrated gastrointestinal tolerance and the ability to adhere to Caco-2 cells, affirming its safety and probiotic potential. Additionally, its ability to produce bacteriocins supports its suitability as a functional probiotic strain with therapeutic potential. However, further in vitro and in vivo investigations are crucial to ensure its safety and explore potential applications for Lactococcus sp. NH2-7C as a probiotic agent.
