it is rod shape in size
Bacillus are rod-shaped bacteria.
2.0 to 4.0
I am asking myself the same question, and found this report, which seems to indicate that lactobacillus prefers an anaerobic environment...:Abstract: The growth rate of Lactobacillus plantarum(...) decreased during aerobic incubation (relative to anaerobic incubation). (...) Increased O2 utilization was accompanied by a switch in metabolism which resulted in acetate rather than lactate accumulation in aerobic cultures."Comparison of aerobic and anaerobic growth of Lactobacillus plantarum in a glucose medium", http://www.springerlink.com/content/p18g513007110117/
According to Wikipedia, yes: "L. plantarum and related lactobacilli are unusual in that they can respire oxygen but have no respiratory chain or cytochromes-the consumed oxygen ultimately ends up as hydrogen peroxide."http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactobacillus_plantarum
Lactobacillus acidophilus is a probiotic that breaks down food in the intestine. Lactobacillus GG, meanwhile, has benefits in preventing or treating intestinal infections that cause diarrhea.
They are known as Bacillus as they are like rod shape. e.g. Lactobacillus found in curd

It is a comprehensive blend of good bacteria including; lactobacillus acidophilus 5 billion CFU, bifidobacillus bifidum 10 billion CFU, bifidobacillus lactis 5 billion CFU, lactobacillus plantarum 4 billion CFU.
