Abstract

The objectives of this study were mainly directed to isolate and molecularly identify some lactic acid bacterial strains from milk and some Egyptian dairy products, and to study their ability to produce proteolytic activities to obtain bioactive peptides with antimicrobial, anti-diabetic, and antioxidant activities. These identified bioactive strains were evaluated for technological and safety standards and used in the production of high-quality and healthy Karish cheese
