Lactobacillus taiwanensis (tai.wa.nen’sis. N.L. masc. adj. taiwanensis of Taiwan, referring to the origin of the type strain).

L. taiwanensis produces both D- and L-lactic acid enantiomers from glucose fermentation. Fructose, mannose, maltose, lactose, sucrose and trehalose are also fermented. No acid is produced from raffinose or ribose [ 109]. The genome size is 1.88 Mbp and the mol% G+C content of DNA is 34.0.

Occurs in the mouse gastrointestinal tract [ 55] but also isolated from silage cattle feed.
