N2 - Human milk is the best nutrition for infants, providing optimal support for the developing immune system and gut microbiota. Hence, it has been used as source for probiotic strain isolation, including members of the genus Bifidobacterium, in an effort to provide beneficial effects to infants who cannot be exclusively breastfed. However, not all supplemented bifidobacteria can effectively colonise the infant gut, nor confer health benefits to the individual infant host; therefore, new isolates are needed to develop a range of dietary products for this specific age group. Here, we investigated the beneficial potential of Bifidobacterium breve DSM 32583 isolated from human milk. We show that in vitro B. breve DSM 32583 exhibited several characteristics considered fundamental for beneficial bacteria, including survival in conditions simulating those present in the digestive tract, adherence to human epithelial cell lines, and inhibition of growth of potentially pathogenic microorganisms. Its antibiotic resistance patterns were comparable to those of known beneficial bifidobacterial strains, and its genome did not contain plasmids nor virulence-associated genes. These results suggest that B. breve DSM 32583 is a potential probiotic candidate. Graphical Abstract: (Figure presented.)
