Lactic acid bacillus
It is a gram positive facultative anaerobic or microaerophillic rod shaped bacteria. These bacteria belong to lactic acid as these bacteria convert lactose and other sugar to lactic acid. These are present in vagina and GI tract in which they form small portion of gut flora.
It creates an environment which is unfavorable for the potentially pathogenic fungi or bacteria by causing production of lactic acid. It favors the establishment of an aciduric flora which causes the suppression of growth of pathogenic micro-organism. This helps in re-establishment of normal intestinal flora.
