Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a group of Gram-positive, non-sporulating, low-GC-content bacteria that comprise 11 bacterial genera, such as Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc, Streptococcus and others (Stiles & Holzapfel, 1997). LAB have a generally regarded as safe (GRAS) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) status, and some strains of different LAB species exhibit also probiotic properties (Gilliland, 1989). They are ubiquitous in many nutrient rich environments, such as milk, meat and plant material, and some of them are permanent residents of mainly mammalian intestinal tracts, while others are able to colonize them temporarily. Due to their ability to produce lactic acid as an end product of sugar fermentation, they are industrially important and are used as starter cultures in various food-fermentation processes. The importance of LAB for humans can be appreciated from the estimated 8.5 billion kg of fermented milk produced annually in Europe, leading to human consumption of 8.5×1020 LAB (Franz et al., 2010).
