The aim of this study was to screen in vitro some probiotic properties of <i>Lactobacillus gasseri </i> MA-1 originated from human milk. The strain showed γ-hemolytic activity (no hemolytic activity) and susceptibility to Chloramphenicol, Cloxacillin and Penicillin G antibiotics. MA-1 with safety properties also exhibited a good tolerance to pH 2 and </span> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">0.3% bile conditions. <i>L. gasseri </i> MA-1 showed high ability of auto-aggregation (97%). </span> <em> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;color:#000000;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">The co-aggregation activities the strain with five human ( </span> </em> <i> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Listeria monocytogenes </span> </i> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">ATCC 7644, <i> E </i>scherichia <i> coli </i> ATCC 35218, <i>Salmonella enteritidis </i>ATCC 13076, <i> E </i>scherichia <i>coli </i>O157:H7 and <i> Salmonella enteritidis </i>RSKK 171 </span> <em> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;color:#000000;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">) and two fish ( </span> </em> <i> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Streptococcus agalactiae </span> </i> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">and <i> Vibrio alginolyticus </i>) </span> <em> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;color:#000000;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> originated bacteria varied from </span> </em> <span style="font-size:9pt;line-height:107%;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">45% to 57%.
