Abstract

Lactobacillus bulgaricus is an anaerobic to aerobic homofermentative lactic acid bacterium of industrial relevance, used in a large number of food product fermentations worldwide. Several potential health benefits have been attributed to the consumption of fermented foods. This chapter considers the general characteristics of the organism, detection and enumeration methods, and its importance for the food industry and the consumer.
