Lactobacillus casei bacteria (SEM)
Lactobacillus casei bacteria. Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the bacteria Lactobacillus casei. L. casei is a bacterium that is found in the human intestines and mouth. Its most common application is in the production of dairy products, specifically yoghurts. Some of the L. casei bacteria are stated, by their producers, to be probiotic and beneficial to the intestinal microbial balance of the host but this has yet to be proven conclusively.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Lactobacillus casei bacteria, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). These tiny microorganisms are commonly found in both the human intestines and mouth. However, their most notable role lies in the production of dairy products, particularly yoghurts. Lactobacillus casei is often referred to as a probiotic bacterium that potentially benefits the microbial balance within our intestines. While some producers claim its positive impact on intestinal health, scientific evidence supporting these claims remains inconclusive. The magnified image reveals the astonishing details of this bacterial species at an impressive 50,000 times magnification (or 12,500 times at 10cm wide). The delicate structures and unique patterns exhibited by Lactobacillus casei highlight its significance in gut flora research and dairy product manufacturing. It's important to note that this print does not represent any specific company or commercial use. Instead, it serves as a testament to the incredible world of microorganisms and their potential impact on our overall well-being. As scientists continue to explore the complexities of Lactobacillus casei and other similar bacteria, we gain further insight into how they contribute to maintaining intestinal health.
