Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2716 (LG21) was selected as the most effective strain to inhibit the growth of H. pylori by in vitro tests and animal study.

Zusammenfassung:To develop probiotics for Helicobacter pylori infection, we screened 203 Latobacillus strains. Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2716 (LG21) was selected as the most effective strain to inhibit the growth of H. pylori by in vitro tests and animal study. We examined the effects of yogurt containing LG21 on H. pylori infection in humans. The intake of yogurt containing LG21 both decreases the number of H. pylori and also reduces mucosal inflammation. LG21 was shown to be effective as a probiotic for H. pylori infection.
