Ecology, Diversity, Antibiotic Resistance Of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) Isolated From Plant Sources And Their Role In Natural Fermentation Of Tempoyak

In recent years, bioprospecting of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from plant sources contributes to the diversity of LAB and the discovery of novel application of LAB in food industries. As LAB play an important role in food fermentation, there are concern of dissemination of antibiotic resistance deter...
