Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria were isolated from the curd and pickle samples. The morphological and biochemical characteristics and sugar fermentation pattern were employed to identify lactic acid bacteria. The isolates from both curd and pickle were identified as rods/bacilli. Both the isolates were Gram positive, nonmotile, catalase negative and exhibited negative pattern of citrate utilization, H2S formation, indole production, oxidase test, urease activity, NH3 production from arginine and VP reaction.
