RESUMO
Fifty-one strains of the genus Bifidobacterium have been found to accumulate indole-3-lactic acid in culture broth. The isolated metabolite was identified through mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. All the microorganisms tested, as resting cells, have been shown to be able to convert L-tryptophan into L-indole-3-lactic acid.
