The type strain of Lactobacillus crispatus (VPI 3199, parent strain of strain ATCC 33820) and the deoxyribonucleic acid homology reference strain of “Lactobacillus acidophilus” group A2 (strain ATCC 33197) have 100% deoxyribonucleic acid homology. L. crispatus and strains in “L. acidophilus” group A2 also produce similar polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis patterns of soluble cellular proteins and are similar in other phenotypic characteristics. Therefore, the group A2 strains are members of the species L. crispatus (Brygoo and Aladame 1953) Moore and Holdeman 1970.
