Target Introduction
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.

FAQs Customer Reviews Related Products
What is Lactobacillus plantarum; 1.191, and how does it function?
Lactobacillus plantarum is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium found in various environments such as fermented foods and the human gastrointestinal tract. It plays a significant role in producing lactic acid, contributing to gut health by inhibiting pathogenic bacteria through competitive exclusion and modulating immune responses.
How should Lactobacillus plantarum; 1.191 be cultured for research purposes?
This strain grows optimally in anaerobic conditions at 37°C in MRS (de Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe) broth or agar. Cultures must be handled in environments free from oxygen to maintain viability. Researchers often use it in studies focused on fermentation, immune modulation, and microbiome research.
How can Lactobacillus plantarum; 1.191 be used in antimicrobial testing?
Lactobacillus plantarum can be employed in antimicrobial assays by testing its inhibitory effects against various pathogens. Researchers typically grow it in competition assays where pathogens like Escherichia coli or Salmonella are exposed to the probiotic to observe inhibition zones, often using agar diffusion techniques.
What methods are used to assess the probiotic properties of Lactobacillus plantarum; 1.191?
To evaluate its probiotic potential, researchers perform assays such as adhesion tests to intestinal epithelial cells, survival in acidic and bile salt conditions, and fermentation tests. Additionally, its immunomodulatory properties are studied by co-culturing the bacterium with immune cells to measure cytokine production.
What assays are commonly used to test the metabolic activity of Lactobacillus plantarum; 1.191?
Researchers often use assays to measure the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), lactic acid, and other metabolic products during the growth of Lactobacillus plantarum. These metabolites are quantified using techniques like gas chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
