Introduction | Lactobacillus species are normal flora of the human mouth, gastrointestinal tract, and female genital tract, where they produce lactic acid and competitively inhibit pathogenic organisms. Lactobacillus are small, slender, nonmotile, Gram-positive bacilli in chains. Immature colonies appear smooth, convex, and translucent. Some species of Lactobacillus used commonly as probiotics. They are most commonly used for diarrhea, including infectious diarrhea and diarrhea in people taking antibiotics. Some people also use lactobacillus for general digestion problems, irritable bowel syndrome; IBS, colic in infants, and many other conditions that involve the stomach and bowel. |
Alternative Names | Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. indicus; piglets |
Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. indicus should be stored in a lyophilized or freeze-dried form at temperatures -80°C to maintain its viability for long-term use. Prior to use, the bacteria can be resuspended in a suitable buffer. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve the probiotic's efficacy.
No, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. indicus is designated for research use only. It is not intended for human consumption, food manufacturing, or medical applications such as diagnostics or therapeutics. Researchers should follow biosafety guidelines when handling this strain.
As Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. indicus is classified under Risk Group 1, it poses minimal risk to healthy individuals. Standard biosafety practices should be followed, including wearing personal protective equipment and using proper containment procedures during its handling and culturing.
Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. indicus is a unique strain isolated specifically from piglets, unlike other common Lactobacillus strains often used in human probiotics. This particular strain is adapted to the gastrointestinal conditions of piglets, making it useful for studies focused on animal gut health.
