What is the biosafety level and CFIA risk group of Lactobacillus plantarum?

Source: CFIA risk group data

Lactobacillus plantarum — also recorded under its updated name Lactiplantibacillus plantarum — is assigned Risk Group 1 (RG1) for humans and Risk Group 1 (RG1) for animals by Health Canada's ePATHogen Risk Group Database. Growers, formulators, and regulatory reviewers asking about Lactiplantibacillus plantarum biosafety level or whether Lactobacillus plantarum poses a human or animal health risk will find the same RG1 standing for both exposure pathways.

The ePATHogen record assigns this bacterial agent a Containment Level 1 designation. Anyone evaluating the Lactobacillus plantarum containment level for a bioinput product formulation or a Canadian regulatory submission can reference this classification directly, whether searching under the common name or the reclassified binomial.
