Abstract: To investigated the probiotic function of Eurotium cristatum(EC) in black tea and reveal the preliminary mechanism of inhibit Salmonella Typhimurium,we used dilution coating method to isolate EC, and analyzed its taxonomic status by morphology and ITS rRNA gene sequence. And then the agar diffusion inhibition test, thermal acid-base and UV stability test, electron microscopy and mouse animal test were used to evaluate the preliminary mechanism of inhibition of S. Typhimurium bacteria by this Ec-12 supernatant. A strain of Ec-12 was identified as E. cristatum based on morphology, growth characteristics and ITS rRNA gene sequence analysis, and named strain Ec-12. The supernatant of the crude isolate Ec-12 produced good inhibition at pH near neutral conditions with good stability. The supernatant of tEc-12 showed good bacterial inhibition at pH near neutral and good stability of inhibition. The inhibition of S. Typhimurium was observed by electron microscopy, which showed that the supernatant of the crude isolate Ec-12 caused deformation of the body and roughness of the surface layer of the bacterium. It also significantly reduced the rate of diarrhea and mortality caused by S. Typhimurium infection in mice, improved the integrity of mouse villi and increased the secretion of mucin (P<0.05), reduced the apoptosis of colonic cells (P<0.05), and inhibited the harm of S. Typhimurium to mice. The supernatant of Ec-12 strain acted on S. Typhimurium in the murine gastrointestinal tract, disrupting the structural integrity of S. Typhimurium, while acting on the murine intestine, improving the integrity of intestinal villi, promoting the secretion of colonic mucin, reducing the apoptosis of colonic cells, and thus reducing the diarrhea and death caused by S. Typhimurium. It has a probiotic potential.
