Lactococcus lactis is a gram-positive bacterium used extensively in the production of buttermilk and cheese, [1] but has also become famous as the first genetically modified organism to be used alive for the treatment of human disease. [2]

Lactococcus is a genus of lactic acid bacteria that were formerly included in the genus Streptococcus Group N1. [2] They are known as homofermenters meaning that they produce a single product, lactic acid in this case, as the major or only product of glucose fermentation .
Dadiah is a traditional fermented milk of West Sumatra, Indonesia prepared with fresh, raw, and unheated buffalo milk. Fermented milk products or fermented dairy products, also known as cultured dairy foods, cultured dairy products, or cultured milk products, are dairy foods that have been made by fermenting milk with lactic acid bacteria such as Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, and Leuconostoc.
The system, created by Rebecca Lancefield, was historically used to organize the various members of the family Streptococcaceae, which includes the genera Lactococcus and Streptococcus, but now is largely superfluous due to explosive growth in the number of streptococcal species identified since the 1970s.

The Lactobacillaceae are a family of lactic acid bacteria. [3] It is the only family in the lactic acid bacteria which includes homofermentative and heterofermentative organisms; [4] in the Lactobacillaceae, the pathway used for hexose fermentation is a genus-specific trait.
Lactococcus virus P008 is a phage specific to Lactococcus lactis, a lactic acid bacteria used in the first stage of making cheese. P008 and related species are responsible for important loss each year in cheese factories.
In the experiment, two different strains of bacteria are used to make reduced-fat cheddar cheese: a strain of Lactococcus lactis and a strain of S. thermophilus. These bacteria are chosen because they produce exopolysaccharide (EPS), which give reduced-fat cheese a texture and flavor like that of regular cheese. [citation needed]
