Lactobacillus gasseri is a species in the genus Lactobacillus identified in 1980 by François Gasser and his associates.[1] It is part of the vaginal flora.[2] Its genome has been sequenced.[3] L. gasseri is a normal inhabitant of the lower reproductive tract in healthy women.[4] It also produces Lactocillin.[5]
