This study aimed to isolate bacteriocin‐like inhibitory substance (BLIS) producing strains from raw buffalo milk and characterize their probiotic and antimicrobial potential. The BT‐11 isolate was identified through 16S rDNA gene sequencing and rec A gene amplification as Lactobacillus paraplantarum . The BT‐11 strain survived in low pH (2, 3) and bile (0.5, 1, and 2%) for 3 hr of incubation. The strain exhibited adhesion to Caco‐2 cells (69.85%), auto‐aggregation (89.74%), and hydrophobicity (81.76%). The BLIS produced by BT‐11 showed antibacterial activity against indicator bacteria including multidrug‐resistant pathogens. Time–kill kinetic analysis revealed the reduction in the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhimurium (>3 Log CFU/ml) in time‐dependent manner. BLIS showed biopreservative effect in meat contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes . The results concluded that L. paraplantarum BT‐11 is potential probiotic strain with potential to produce BLISs. Practical applications Raw buffalo milk represents excellent source of unexplored potential probiotics with antimicrobial characteristics. In this study, the Lactobacillus paraplantarum BT‐11 was isolated from raw buffalo milk and its probiotic potential and bacteriocin‐like inhibitory substance (BLIS) was characterized. The results demonstrated that L. paraplantarum BT‐11 is promising potential probiotic. The BLIS produced by L. paraplantarum BT‐11 showed antagonistic activity against pathogens including multidrug‐resistant foodborne bacteria. BLIS also showed biopreservative potential in meat against Listeria monocytogenes . L. paraplantarum and its antimicrobial compound can be used as bio preservative agent in food safety applications.
