Production of Conjugated Linoleic and Conjugated α-Linolenic Acid in a Reconstituted Skim Milk-Based Medium by Bifidobacterial Strains Isolated from Human Breast Milk

Figure 3

Comparative analysis of CLA versus CLNA production at different times. The B. breve M7-70 strain was incubated in MRS broth containing 500 μg mL−1 free linoleic acid (LA) or 500 μg mL−1 free linolenic acid (LNA) for 48 hours under anaerobic conditions. Samples were taken at the indicated times. Values are means ± SD of three independent experiments.
