RESUMO
The potential probiotic yeast was isolated from the Kyzyl Anor pomegranate variety growing in the Turkestan region (Kazakhstan). The yeast strain was identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae Az-12. Molecular genetic identification was carried out using the Sanger sequencing method. The degree of homology of the S. cerevisiae Az-12 strain with the strain MH608341.1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolate extr03 was 99.65%. Antagonistic effect of the yeast against pathogenic bacteria was confirmed according inhibition zones for Staphylococcus aureus 13.5 ± 0.05 mm; the inhibition zones for Escherichia coli 12.8 ± 0.05 mm; and 10.7 ± 0.05 mm for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Scanning microscopy of S. cerevisiae Az-12 and S. aureus confirmed the adhesive ability of the yeast cell surface to S. aureus. S. cerevisiae Az-12 were chosen as the most promising, as they are able to quickly ferment juices. Functional drinks containing pomegranate juice and yeast with a probiotic effect can be considered as a useful synbiotic product formulation.

A levedura probiótica potencial foi compreendida da variedade de romã Kyzyl Anor que cresce na região do Turquestão (Cazaquistão). A cepa de levedura foi identificada como Saccharomyces cerevisiae Az-12. A identificação genética molecular foi realizada pelo método de sequenciamento de Sanger. O grau de homologia da cepa S. cerevisiae Az-12 com a cepa MH608341.1 Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolado extr-03 foi de 99,65%. O efeito antagônico da levedura contra bactérias patogênicas foi confirmado de acordo com as zonas de inibição para Staphylococcus aureus 13,5 ± 0,05 mm; as zonas de inibição para Escherichia coli 12,8 ± 0,05 mm; e 10,7 ± 0,05 mm para Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A microscopia de varredura de S. cerevisiae Az-12 e S. aureus confirmou a capacidade de adesão da superfície celular de levedura a S. aureus. S. cerevisiae Az-12 foram escolhidas como as mais promissoras, pois são capazes de fermentar sucos rapidamente. Bebidas funcionais contendo suco de romã e fermento com efeito probiótico podem ser consideradas como uma formulação de produto simbiótico útil.
