 of a fixed interpolation scheme for sub-pixel positions. In some cases, different interpolation filters can be selected to improve coding efficiency and prediction quality. For example, an encoder may apply different sets of fixed interpolation filters or adaptive interpolation filters on a selective basis. Also, to further improve the quality of prediction, an encoder may add offsets to sub-pixel position values after interpolation. Lactobacillus acidophilus is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped, non-spore forming, homofermentative bacterium that is a normal inhabitant of the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts. Since its original isolation by Moro (1900) from infant feces, the “acid loving” organism has been found in the intestinal tract of humans, breast-fed infants, and persons consuming high milk, lactose, or dextrin diets. Historically, L. acidophilus is the Lactobacillus species most often implicated as an intestinal probiotic capable of eliciting beneficial effects on the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract (Klaenhammer and Russell (2000) “Species of the Lactobacillus acidophilus complex,” Encyclopedia of Food Microbiology, Volume 2, pp. 1151-1157. Robinson et al., eds. (Academic Press, San Diego, Calif.). L. acidophilus can ferment hexoses, including lactose and more complex oligosaccharides, to produce lactic acid and lower the pH of the environment where the organism is cultured. Acidified environments (e.g., food, vagina, and regions within the gastrointestinal tract) can interfere with the growth of undesirable bacteria, pathogens, and yeasts. The organism is well known for its acid tolerance, survival in cultured dairy products, and viability during passage through the stomach and gastrointestinal tract. Lactobacilli and other commensal bacteria, some of which are considered as probiotic bacteria that “favor life,” have been studied extensively for their effects on human health, particularly in the prevention or treatment of enteric infections, diarrheal disease, prevention of cancer, and stimulation of the immune system.
The cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria consists of a peptidoglycan macromolecule, with attached accessory molecules such as teichoic acids, teichuronic acids, lipoteichoic acids, lipoglycans, polyphosphates, and carbohydrates (Hancock (1997) Biochem.

For example, an encoder may practice different sets of sterilize interpolation filters or adaptive interjection filters on a selective basis.

Lactobacillus acidophilus is a Gram - positive, rod - shape, non - spore forming, homofermentative bacterium that is a normal inhabitant of the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts.

L. acidophilus can ferment hexoses, including lactose and more complex oligosaccharides, to grow lactic acid and lower the pH of the environment where the organism is cultured. acidify environment (e.g., food, vagina, and regions within the gastrointestinal tract) can intervene with the growth of undesirable bacteria, pathogen, and yeasts. The organism is well known for its acid permissiveness, survival in cultured dairy products, and viability during passage through the stomach and gastrointestinal tract. Lactobacilli and other commensal bacteria, some of which are considered as probiotic bacteria that “ favor life, ” have been studied extensively for their effects on human health, peculiarly in the prevention or treatment of intestinal infections, diarrheal disease, prevention of cancer, and stimulation of the immune system.
