In addition, it has capabilities of inhibiting pathogenic bacteria in intestine. Bacillus coagulans has been applied in many aspects of healthcare, medicine, food and prologue abroad. Although the research and development on Bacillus coagulans have carried out for about ten years at home, the level falls behind in the world. In this paper, the characteristics, probiotic mechanisms, fermentation performance and clinical research of Bacillus coagulans are summarized in detail.
