Abstract excerpt

Commensal lactobacilli that produce hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) inhibit Neisseria gonorrhoeae in vitro, and clinical data suggest that they are associated with a reduced risk of gonorrhea. We precolonized mice with Lactobacillus crispatus and then challenged them with N. gonorrhoeae, to measure the effects of H(2)O(2)-producing lactobacilli on gonococcal infection. We found no difference in the duration of...
