◐ Food-origin
Sequenced
Public genome assembly available

Lactobacillus crispatus M247 is a rod-shaped lactic acid bacterium characterized by its mucus-binding properties and production of antimicrobial compounds. Animal and human studies have examined this strain in the context of vaginal and urinary health, including mechanisms such as competitive exclusion and metabolite production. Recent in vitro research has examined the strain's bioactive metabolites, and human observational studies have examined associations with health outcomes in this area. These are research topics, not findings; the papers do not establish that this strain treats or prevents any condition.
