Characterization of Stress Tolerance and Probiotic Traits of Streptococcus salivarius Strains Isolated from Wildflower Honey

Aims Honey represents a distinct microbial habitat, imposing physicochemical stresses on its resident microbiota while also serving as a potential source of beneficial microorganisms. This study aimed to isolate lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from Korean wildflower honey and characterize their gastrointestinal (GI) and physiological stress tolerance, adhesion-related properties, functional…
