Encapsulation of probiotics: the best way?
Posted 5 years ago by Soraya in General Health News
The dairy sector has often been the area where probiotics have boomed, yet more and more research has been focusing on the protection of probiotics; coating and encapsulating the friendly bacteria in order to increase stability and to improve the probiotics’ survival through gastric juices and biliary salts, so they can reach the gut in a viable form. Scientists from the Technical Research Centre of Finland furthermore found that various prebiotic fibres could help to protect the stability of probiotic strains of the Lactobacillus rhamnosus species.
