摘要: A lactase-containing preparation is prepared for use by mammals having a lactase deficiency. dried bacterial culture containing mixed with desiccant such as silicon oxide to stabilize water content of the culture. unit dosage resultant stabilized encapsulated in an ingestible capsule gelatin capsule. The coated enteric polymer, and treated under vacuum pressure remove oxygen moisture. has extended shelf-life at room elevated temperatures, provides activity least 10 hours after ingestion. may be freeze form. Suitable cultures are Lactobacillus acidophillus, bulgaricus Streptococcus thermophilus.
