Evidence-Based Answer Limited data suggest that probiotic use decreases duration and frequency of loose stools, and reduces length of hospital stay in children with persistent diarrhea.1 One high-quality study showed Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG to be effective. Probiotics are generally well tolerated. (Strength of Recommendation = B, based on inconsistent or limited-quality patient-oriented evid...

Probiotics provide health benefits to their hosts, including modulation of host immune response, inhibition of colonization by pathogens, modulation of the gut microbiota, and epithelial barrier enhancement. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of two newly isolated Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains of probiotic potential from healthy human infants.

Lactobacillus species are a commensal flora of the human gastrointestinal and the female genitourinary tract. Lactobacilli especially the rhamnosus species, are common components of commercial probiotics. They are rarely associated with pathology in immunocompetent people, but they have been known to cause dental caries, bacteremia, and endocarditis in patients with suppressed immune function. ...

Recent studies have suggested that the topical application of probiotic bacteria can improve skin health or combat disease. We have utilized a primary human keratinocyte culture model to investigate whether probiotic bacteria can inhibit Staphylococcus aureus infection. Evaluation of the candidate probiotics Lactobacillus reuteri ATCC 55730, Lactobacillus rhamnosus AC413, and Lactobacillus sali...

Lactobacillus casei, L. paracasei, and L. rhamnosus form a closely related taxonomic group (Lactobacillus casei group) within the facultatively heterofermentative lactobacilli. Here, we report the complete genome sequences of L. paracasei JCM 8130 and L. casei ATCC 393, and the draft genome sequence of L. paracasei COM0101, all of which were isolated from daily products. Furthermore, we re-anno...

Bu çalışmada ultrason uygulamasının farklı probiyotik laktobasil (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, rhamnosus GG) türlerinin canlılığına etkisini incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, fermentasyon süresine etkisi de saptanmıştır. amaçla süte önce 15 dk süreyle 400 W uygulanmış ve kültür ilavesi sonrasında da 5 100 uygulanarak süresi belirlenmiş elde edilen yoğurt benzeri fermente süt ürününde ba...

Of the hundreds of Lactobacillus so-called probiotic products, only a handful contain identifiable strains that have any published data supporting their usefulness in humans. Of these, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1, Lactobacillus fermentum RC-14, and Lactobacillus fermentum B-54 possess antipathogen properties and colonize the intestine and vagina, conferring health benefits to women. These stra...

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from ovine milk and cheeses manufactured in the South Region of Brazil. Among 112 bacterial isolates investigated, 59 were chosen through a screening for LAB. Among these 59 strains of LAB, 21% showed antimicrobial, proteolytic and lipolytic activities. Based on this screening, Lactobacillus plantarum LCN 17 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus LCN 43 were select...
