Evaluation of the immunomodulatory activities of the probiotic strain lactobacillus fermentum UCO-979C [PDF]
Lactobacillus fermentum UCO-979C, a strain isolated from a human stomach, was previously characterized by its potential probiotic properties. The UCO-979C strain displayed the ability to beneficially regulate the innate immune response triggered by ...
