Card 06Shape: V

Lacey

Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis. The tough bifido. Copes with oxygen and acid better than most cousins.

The file on Lacey

Lacey is a bifidobacterium, so she branches: often into a V. Most bifidos hate oxygen. Lacey copes with it, and with acid, better than her cousins.

That toughness is why B. lactis is the bifido you find in yogurts, capsules and our melt-on-your-tongue strips.

Shape
A short rod, sometimes a V.
Hangs out
Large intestine.
Eats
Prebiotic fibres like FOS and polydextrose.
Fun fact
That toughness is why she turns up in yogurts, capsules and strips.

AnnouncerShe has never once asked for directions.

Far-out fact

Most bifidobacteria can’t stand oxygen. B. lactis copes, which is why it’s easy to put in foods.
