 | This is the sandbox page where you will draft your initial Wikipedia contribution.
If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |

Lacticaseibacillus casei is a species that belongs to the genus Lacticaseibacillus, a lactic acid bacteria (LAB), that was previously classified as Lactobacillus casei-01.[1] This species is a non-sporing, rod-shaped, anaerobic, gram positive microorganism that can be found within the reproductive and digestive tract of the human body.[2] Since L. casei can survive in a variety of environmental habitats it can be isolated from Chinese pickles, feces, commercial dairy supplements, and the respiratory tract. It has and continues to be extensively studied by health scientist because of its use in fermenting products including milk, cheese, yogurt, wine and meat, and its use as a probiotic.[3]
This particular species of Lacticaseibacillus is documented to have a wide pH and temperature range, and complements the growth of L. acidophilus, a producer of the enzymeamylase (a carbohydrate-digesting enzyme).
