Atopobium uli and ten species of Lactobacillus showed stable patterns despite the change in temperature. The rest of the type strains showed discrepancy between the two incubation temperatures: 18 strains lost, 12 additionally fermented another sugar, and 7 others fermented a different one in lieu. The variation was maximum in L. delbrueckii subsp. delbrueckii. L. malefermentans failed to ferment any of the substrates at 37°C. Majority of the food and plant-associated strains (mainly heterofermenters) retained distinctive traits at 30°C, while most of the animal-associated strains (mostly homofermenters) did so at 37°C. No general trend was observed; 30°C appeared to promote heterofermentation, while 37°C favored homofermenters. Use of API 50 CH profiles for taxonomic purpose in most lactobacilli appears reproducible if a specific temperature for a species is strictly followed.
