ABSTRACT:
New strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus capable of adhering to the tissue cells of various species of animals are described. At least one new strain exhibits calcium-independent attachment which is enhanced by the presence of calcium. The strains may be used in a suitable carrier as a dietary supplement for providing a source of the strain of bacteria in an animal.
