Table 1. Survival rate of Lactobacillus reuteri MG5346 under simulated gastrointestinal conditions

Strain	Initial count1) (Log CFU/mL)	Survival in SGF2)		Survival in SIF3)
		Log CFU/mL	%	Log CFU/mL	%
L. reuteri MG5346	7.55±0.19	6.85±0.07	90.74	6.94±0.03	91.87

The results are expressed as means±SD.
Initial counts evaluated at 0 h.
Survival rate in simulated gastric fluid (SGF, pH 2.5) was determined at 37°C after 4 h.
Survival rate in simulated intestinal fluid (SIF, pH 8.0) was determined at 37°C after 6 h.
