Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii – Probiotic Yeast
The discovery and study of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii (Sb) is strictly related to the concept of health promoting microorganisms from food. The first most well-known and popularized throughout Europe assumption of health promoting food containing living microorganisms was yogurt. Appointed in 1888 by Louis Pasteur, Ilya Ilyich Metchnikov working in Paris developed...
متن کاملMetabolic Engineering of Probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii.
Saccharomyces boulardiiis a probiotic yeast that has been used for promoting gut health as well as preventing diarrheal diseases. This yeast not only exhibits beneficial phenotypes for gut health but also can stay longer in the gut than Saccharomyces cerevisiae Therefore, S. boulardiiis an attractive host for metabolic engineering to produce biomolecules of interest in the gut. However, the lac...
متن کاملSaccharomyces Boulardii - a Probiotic of Choice
The term ―probiotic‖ was first used in 1965 by Lilly and Stillwell, to describe substances secreted by one organism which stimulate the growth of another probiotics as ―live micro-organisms‖, which, when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host .The use of probiotics for the prevention of antibiotic associated diarrhea (AAD) and the treatment of Clostridium difficile...
متن کاملSaccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii fungemia following probiotic treatment
Probiotics are commonly prescribed as an adjuvant in the treatment of antibiotic-associated diarrhea caused by Clostridium difficile. We report the case of an immunocompromised 73-year-old patient on chemotherapy who developed Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii fungemia in a central venous catheter during treatment of antibiotic-associated pseudomembranous colitis with the probiotic Saccha...
متن کاملGenotypic and physiological characterization of Saccharomyces boulardii, the probiotic strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Saccharomyces boulardii, a yeast that was isolated from fruit in Indochina, has been used as a remedy for diarrhea since 1950 and is now a commercially available treatment throughout Europe, Africa, and South America. Though initially classified as a separate species of Saccharomyces, recent publications have shown that the genome of S. boulardii is so similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae that t...
