Microbiological Considerations in Selection and Preparation of Lactobacillus Strains for Use as Dietary Adjuncts

摘要: Abstract A number of food, feed, and dairy products have been formulated to contain viable cells Lactobacillus acidophilus (61, 62). The benefit offered during consumption these dietary adjuncts is a continued supply L. the gastrointestinal tract. This bacterium resident small intestine believed help stabilize gut microflora both man animals. Suggested roles lactobacilli in intestinal tract potential benefits supplying this organism through discussed (19, 48, 49, 53, 62) and, therefore, will not be dealt with extensively review. Since Metchni-koff's (39) original proposal on suppression putrefying bacterial by acid-producing lactobacilli, evidence defining has remained sporadic often inconclusive. major factor contributing difficulty obtaining information complexity ecosystem. Furthermore, early development containing preceded knowledge necessary prepare culture reliable form
