Growth inhibition of pathogens by Lactobacillus strains after 24 h of culture. The growth of pathogenic microorganism is expressed as log10 CFU mL−1. Control: (Gv) G. vaginalis or (Ng) N. gonorrhoeae. The different Lactobacillus strain isolates are represented by their respective numbers. a represents coculture of G. vaginalis with Lactobacillus sp.; b represents coculture of N. gonorrhoeae with Lactobacillus sp. (*) Statistically significant differences compared to control (P < 0.05); (***) Statistically significant differences compared to control (P < 0.001). Presented values represent the mean and standard deviation from triplicate determinations
