Lactobacillus gallinarum (gal. li. na'rum. L. gen. pl. n. gallinarum of hens). Lactobacillus gallinarum produces DL-lactic acid. Acid is producedfrom glucose, mannose, galactose, sucrose, fructose, cellobiose, melibiose and raffinose. No acid formation from arabinose, rhamnose, ribose, trehalose and mannitol. Synonymous with Lactobacillus acidophilus group A 4 of Johnson et al. [72]. Strains are tolerant to 4.0 % NaCl [72, 84].
