High-quality draft genome and characterization of commercially potent probiotic Lactobacillus strains.

Lactobacillus acidophilus UBLA-34, L. paracasei UBLPC-35, L. plantarum UBLP-40, and L.

Genome Sequencing and Annotation of UBBS-14 to Ensure Probiotic Safety.

is a rod shaped, gram positive, spore producing bacterium. They are the normal flora of gastrointestinal tract of humans and it is the best characterized model organism for endospore formation. It has the ability to withstand environmental stress, and synthesize beneficial compounds, therefore, it is recognized as a high-quality probiotic supplement.

Whole-Genome Shotgun Sequencing and Characterization of Probiotic Strain Clostridium butyricum UBCB 70 To Assess Its Safety.

Clostridium butyricum is a strictly anaerobic, butyric acid-producing, Gram-positive, spore-forming bacillus that is commonly present in the gut of humans. The complete genome sequence of Clostridium butyricum UBCB 70 was studied to evaluate the presence of antibiotic-resistant and clostridium toxin genes. Here, we announce the draft genome sequence of Clostridium butyricum UBCB 70, isolated from healthy human feces at Unique Biotech Limited, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.

Safety assesment of UBBC07, a spore forming probiotic.

Probiotics are vital bacteria that colonize the intestine and modify its microflora with benefits for the host. Very few members of the Bacillus group are recognized as safe for use and hence only a few strains are available as commercial preparations for application in humans and animals. Acute and subacute studies in rats were conducted to establish safety of () UBBC07.
