Cell-Surface Hydrophobicity of the lactic acid bacteria. Ability of lactic acid bacteria to adhere to gastrointestinal wall was measured using the microbial adhesion to hydrocarbon method that measures the cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH). The CSH estimated in percentage gives the value of adhesion potential of each bacterial isolates presented in bar chart as a mean of triplicate values. Bars represent the standard deviation from the mean value. NB: Cell surface hydrophobicity of Isolates LBH1066, 1073, 107444, LBH1148 (data not available).
