Aims
L‐tryptophan is an essential aromatic amino acid for the growth and development of animals. Studies about enteric L‐tryptophan‐producing bacteria are scarce. In this report, we characterized the probiotic potential of Enterococcus casseliflavus ECB140, focusing on its L‐tryptophan production abilities.
Methods and results
ECB140 strain was isolated from the silkworm gut and can survive under...
