Fig. 1From: Probiotic and anti-inflammatory attributes of an isolate Lactobacillus helveticus NS8 from Mongolian fermented koumissMolecular identification of L. helveticus NS8 isolate. a. PCR typing of NS8 isolate by using species-specific pepC/pepN/htrA primers (lane 2, pepC; lane 3, pepN; lane 4, htrA) and L. helveticus specific primers for amplification of partial 326Â bp slpH gene (lane 5). There is no PCR product obtained by using primers targeted against L. acidophilus slpA (lane 6). Lane 1, DNA ladder. b. Morphology of NS8 under scanning electron microscope. NS8 are rod-shaped bacteria with high adhesion capacity to Caco-2 cellsBack to article page
