Table 1 Characteristics of isolated Lactobacillus strains from dairy sources, including catalase test results, gram staining, and survival rates. The strains were incubated for 3–4 h under varying pH conditions (ranging from 2.5 to 6.6) and in the presence of 0.3% bile salt.
Survival rates = ([OD600 (3–4 h)/OD600 (0 h)] ×100) | ||||||
