Notes:
-Bacillus subtilis, also called hay bacteria, is often found in nature. Especially in the upper soil layers, but also in dust, water, air and in people.
- For metabolism, it has some enzymes for branched carbohydrates and proteins, but still prefers glucose as an energy source. - Even in the absence of oxygen, this bacterium can continue to live and even grow slowly. Typical fermentation products such as ethanol and lactic acid are then created.
- In medicine it is used to treat diarrhea, dyspepsia and enterocolitis. The health-promoting effect may lie in the synthesis of antibiotic substances and the activation of immune cells.
- As a probiotic, it also increases the survivability of the lactic acid bacteria L. reuteri and L. acidophilus, which reduces the proportion of harmful bacteria. Under extremely rare circumstances, however, it can also have a pathogenic effect.
- In the food industry, the B. subtilis natto strain is used to make the Japanese dish natto (fermented soybeans) and other dishes.
- Its spores can survive in space for up to six years.

- Bacillus subtilis LZU-GM was isolated from Pakistani traditional fermented sourdough and could degrade 73.7% of #Gluten in 24 h in vitro. - The #Gluten degradation was 3-fold higher in the small intestine of the strain LZU-GM treated mice group. - #Gluten-treated mice established positive antigliadin antibodies (AGA) in serum (IgA, IgG, and anti-TG2 antibodies) as compared to the strain LZU-GM treatment group. - the number of IFN-γ, TNF-α, #IL-10, and COX-2 cells decrease in the lamina propria of the strain LZU-GM treatment group. - Microbial community bar plot analysis showed that #Lactobacillus, #Dubosiella, and #Enterococcus genera were restored and stabilized in the LZU-GM treatment group while #Blautia and #Ruminococcus were found lower. - [1.5] [#Clostridioides difficile] [#Berberine]
