The Characteristics of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus [PDF]
SUMMARY: A study of 94 strains of lactobacilli was made. These were divided into three groups by ‘sugar’ fermentations and tolerance of sodium chloride and sodium tauroglycocholate. Strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus fermented amygdalin, cellobiose, salicin and sucrose, were variable in their action on dextrin and maltose, but grew in 2% sodium ...

Differentiation of Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus paracasei and Lactobacillus rhamnosus by polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
Lactobacillus casei, Lact. paracasei and Lact. rhamnosus form a closely related taxonomic group within the heterofermentative lactobacilli. These three species are difficult to differentiate using traditional fermentation profiles. We have developed polymerase chain reaction primers which are specific for each of these species based on differences in ...

Bacteriophages of Lactobacillus
In this review, we are listing Lactobacillus phages that have been reported in peer-reviewed articles published since 1960. Putative phages that are defective or have not been shown to be infectious, such as phage-like particles, are not discussed. Our literature searches led to the identification of 231 Lactobacillus phages, 186 of which have been ...

Deoxyribonucleic Acid Homologies of Lactobacillus jensenii, Lactobacillus leichmannii, and Lactobacillus acidophilus [PDF]
Labeled [3H]deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from Lactobacillus jensenii ATCC 25258 yielded a substantial amount of heteroduplexes only with DNA molecules from other strains of L. jensenii. A low yield of heteroduplexing was obtained between DNAs of L. jensenii and L.
