Klebsiella species are becoming a major global public health concern. In particular, the increase in multidrug‐resistant strains is a cause for concern. This study was aimed at determining the antibiotic susceptibility of two different isolates of Klebsiella quasipneumoniae subsp. similipneumoniae and determining the virulence characteristics and bacterial morphology under subminimum inhibitory concentrations (sub‐MICs) of antibiotics. In this study, two multidrug‐resistant K. quasipneumoniae subsp. similipneumoniae isolates were identified, one of which was clinical, and the other was isolated from freshwater. The MICs of the antibiotics meropenem, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, and kanamycin were determined for these isolates. The effects of the sub‐MICs on the virulence and morphological characteristics of the bacteria were investigated in comparison with K. pneumoniae (ATCC 13883). The MICs of meropenem, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, and kanamycin were 0.04, 20, 2, and 8 μg/mL in the clinical isolate; 0.2, 15, 5, and 2 μg/mL in the freshwater isolate; and 0.03, 3, 0.1, and 0.3 μg/mL for K. pneumoniae. The biofilm‐forming ability of K. quasipneumoniae subsp. similipneumoniae isolates decreased with antibiotic sub‐MICs. Siderophore activity increased only with MIC/4 of kanamycin and MIC/2 of chloramphenicol in the clinical isolate (p > 0.05). Furthermore, bacterial morphology and expression of virulence genes were affected differently by the sub‐MICs. This study showed that biofilm formation decreased and that the changes in bacterial morphology and expression of virulence genes were very different in the presence of 1/2 and 1/4 sub‐MIC antibiotics.

- Abstract
Research background. Kombucha is a fermented beverage with several health benefits; however, to improve its antioxidant activity, new raw materials such as hop, madimak and hawthorn were included in the present study. Experimental approach. The somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) was performed on the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) to evaluate the antigenotoxic potential of black tea-flavoured kombucha and three other flavours of kombuchas (hop, madimak and hawthorn) against H2O2- and K2Cr2O7-induced genotoxicity. Furthermore, a lifespan assay was performed to assess the effects of kombuchas on the longevity of the fruit fly. Results and conclusions. According to the results obtained from the SMART assay, hop-flavoured kombucha attenuated genotoxicity induced by H2O2, and madimak-flavoured kombucha reduced genotoxicity induced by H2O2 and K2Cr2O7. Black tea- and hop-flavoured kombucha prolonged the lifespan of the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) after the treatment with H2O2 and K2Cr2O7. Novelty and scientific contribution. Hop-flavoured kombucha is a promising antioxidant that protects the genome and extends the lifespan of the fruit fly. This study sheds light on novel beverages that can combat ageing and protect against genotoxicity., Pozadina istraživanja.

- Abstract
Research background. Kombucha is consumed worldwide for its beneficial health effects. Kombucha teas fermented with various herbal infusions have become very important nowadays. Although black tea is used for kombucha fermentation, kombucha teas fermented with different herbal infusions have gained great importance. In this study, three different traditional medicinal plants, namely hop (Humulus lupulus L.), madimak (Polygonum cognatum) and hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) were used for the fermentation of kombucha beverages, and the bioactivity of these beverages was investigated extensively. Experimental approach. The microbiological profile, bacterial cellulose formation, antibacterial, antiproliferative and antioxidant activities, sensory properties, total phenolic content and flavonoid content of kombucha beverages were investigated. Liquid chromatography-coupled mass spectrometry analysis was used to identify and quantify specific polyphenolic compounds in the samples. Results and conclusions. According to the results, the hawthorn-flavoured kombucha, which has lower free radical scavenging activity than the other samples, came into prominence in terms of sensory properties. All examined kombucha beverages showed a strong cytotoxic effect on Mahlavu and HCT116 cell lines, but only the madimak-flavoured kombucha sample, which had a higher total phenolic/flavonoid content, had antibacterial activity against all microorganisms used in the study. Novelty and scientific contribution. Considering the results of this study, madimak could be an effective herb for the development of new kombucha beverages, although its sensory properties still need to be improved. This study contributes to science in terms of producing new fermented beverages with improved beneficial health effects., Pozadina istraživanja. Napitak kombucha se konzumira diljem svijeta zbog njegovog povoljnog učinka na zdravlje. U današnje vrijeme, kombucha dobivena fermentacijom različitih biljnih infuzija ima sve veću važnost na tržištu. Iako se za dobivanje kombuche koristi crni čaj, fermentacije različitih biljnih infuzija za dobivanje kombuche sve su popularnije. U ovome su radu za dobivanje kombuche korištene tri tradicionalne ljekovite biljke, i to hmelj (Humulus lupulus L.), madimak (Polygonum cognatum) i glog (Crataegus monogyna), te je detaljno ispitana biološka aktivnost dobivenih napitaka. Eksperimentalni pristup. Ispitani su mikrobiološki profil, proizvodnja bakterijske celuloze, antibakterijsko, antiproliferacijsko i antioksidacijsko djelovanje, senzorna svojstva, te ukupni udjel fenolnih spojeva i flavonoida u uzorcima kombuche. Tekućinskom kromatografijom spregnutom s masenom spektrometrijom identificirani su specifični polifenoli u uzorcima, te su određene njihove koncentracije. Rezultati i zaključci. Na temelju dobivenih rezultata zaključeno je da se kombucha s dodatkom gloga istaknula zbog svojih senzornih svojstava, iako je imala slabiju sposobnost uklanjanja slobodnih radikala od ostalih uzoraka. Svi su ispitani uzorci kombuche imali izražen citotoksični učinak na stanične linije Mahlavu i HCT116, ali jedino je uzorak s dodatkom madimaka, koji je sadržavao veći udjel ukupnih fenola odnosno flavonoida, imao antibakterijski učinak na sve mikroorganizme ispitane u radu. Novina i znanstveni doprinos. Uzevši u obzir dobivene rezultate, zaključeno je da madimak ima potencijal za razvoj novih napitaka kombucha, iako je potrebno dodatno poboljšati njihova senzorna svojstva. Doprinos ovoga rada je u unapređenju razvoja novih fermentiranih napitaka s povoljnijim učinkom na zdravlje.

Nowadays, fermented beverages such as kombucha are particularly popular among customers because of their health benefits. Although black tea is often used as a substrate for kombucha fermentation, kombucha drinks prepared with various herbal teas are becoming increasingly popular. In this study, the medicinal plant, mahaleb was used for kombucha fermentation. The DPPH method was used to determine the antioxidant activity of kombucha drinks, the Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminium chloride colorimetric method was used to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid content of the drinks, respectively, and the antibacterial activity was determined by the disc diffusion method of the drinks. In addition, the microbiological composition and sensory analysis of the kombucha drinks were investigated. The antioxidant activity of the mahaleb-flavoured kombucha was not statistically different from those of traditional kombucha (p>0.05). As for phenolic content, traditional kombucha had higher content on all fermentation days (p<0.05). The total flavonoid content of mahalebflavoured kombucha was similar to traditional kombucha on day 7 of fermentation (p>0.05), but higher than traditional kombucha on day 21 of fermentation (p<0.0.5). In the analysis of the microbiological profile, the highest values of total mesophilic bacteria and acetic acid bacteria content were observed in mahaleb-flavoured kombucha and yeast in traditional kombucha on the 7th and 14th day of fermentation. Mahaleb-flavoured kombucha scored highest on all criteria and was the most popular beverage among participants. This is the first study in which mahaleb was used in kombucha fermentation.
