Strain: ATCC 53103
One of the most extensively studied probiotic strains worldwide.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG), also classified as Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG, is a probiotic bacterial strain originally isolated from the human intestinal microbiota. It is identified by the strain designation ATCC 53103.
Research has investigated several biological characteristics of LGG, including survival through gastrointestinal conditions, adhesion properties, interaction with intestinal epithelial cells, and communication with host immune pathways.
LGG has been studied extensively in human and laboratory research, particularly in areas related to gastrointestinal health, microbiome interactions, diarrhea-associated conditions, and immune responses. The number of publications reflects research activity rather than a direct measure of clinical effectiveness.
Products matched to this microorganism based on their listed probiotic strains.
LGG is one of the best-characterized probiotic strains in scientific literature. Safety and effectiveness can depend on the population studied, dosage, formulation, and specific health context.
