Autochthonous and allochthonous lactic acid bacteria: action on the hematological and intestinal microbiota for two species of Astyanax genus

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of autochthonous and allochthonous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in two species of lambaris (Astyanax bimaculatus and Astyanax fasciatus), and to investigate the effects on intestinal microbiota and hematological changes. Two experiments were carried out, one for each lambari species, both assays were divided into three treatments: autochthonous LAB, allochthonous LAB and control. The 10% inoculum was included on diet in the LAB treatments and sterile medium for control. After 30 days for A. bimaculatus LAB indigenous changes all bacteria groups analyzed, while allochthonous LAB just decrease Staphylococcus spp. count. Though for A. fasciatus his autochthone LAB reduced the staphylococcal count. In hematology, for A. bimaculatus autochthonous LAB showed a higher number of thrombocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes and total leukocytes in the circulatory system than the control. Though for A. fasciatus his autochthone LAB showed a higher number of total lymphocytes and leukocytes than the control, while Lactobacillus sp. acting as an allochthone, it did not differ among treatments. In conclusion, both LAB (Lactobacillus sp. and L. lactis) promoted more beneficial changes in the microbiota and hematological profile when they act as an autochthone probiotic, demonstrating a probiotic-associated host.
