- The current Irish label identifies all 8 strains by NCIMB deposit code - for example Streptococcus thermophilus NCIMB 30438, Lactobacillus acidophilus NCIMB 30442, and Bifidobacterium breve NCIMB 30441. (Older US/Visbiome packaging listed the same organisms under DSM codes; the current Irish product uses NCIMB codes.)

- Documented in over 200 scientific publications, including more than 80 clinical studies.
