Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains of oral and vaginal origin show strong antifungal activity in vitro.

Conclusion: Screening of probiotic lactobacilli showed significant strain-dependent variations in their antifungal capacity in a pH-dependent mode. Two strains of oral origin were most effective. A further characterization seems justified to elaborate on their probiotic properties. PMID: 33178403 [PubMed]
