Streptococcus thermophilus NCIMB 41856

◔ Human-origin
Sequenced
Public genome assembly available

Streptococcus thermophilus NCIMB 41856 is a strain that has attracted research interest in the context of the gut and inflammation. A 2017 animal study examined this strain in a murine model of colitis (a model of inflammatory bowel disease), and a 2012 conference abstract described an iron-responsive mechanism studied in relation to gut inflammation. S. thermophilus is well established as a food-grade fermentation organism, widely used in yogurt and cheese production; however, strain-specific probiotic evidence for NCIMB 41856 in humans is absent from the available literature. These are research topics, not findings; the papers do not establish that this strain treats or prevents any condition.
