The Potential of Glutinous Rice Tape Added with Lactobacillus plantarum Dad-13 and Saccharomyces boulardii as a Probiotic Food

characterization of lactobacillus plantarum as a potential probiotic in vitro and use of a dairy product (yogurt) as food carrier

background and objective: the current study was undertaken to check in vitro different characteristics of lactobacillus plantarum as potential probiotic. these characteristics include viability of probiotic and ph during cold storage, tolerance to acid and bile, and antibiotic resistance. material and methods: samples of yogurt were stored at 4°c and analyzed in time 0, 1, 3, 7, 10 and 14 days ...

Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii as a eukaryotic probiotic and its therapeutic functions

Fuller, in 1989, described probiotic microorganisms as “a live microbial feed supplement,which beneficially affects the host animal, by improving its intestinal microbial balance”.Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii (S.boulardii) is an accurate probiotic yeast idol.The detection and budding of S.boulardiiis firmly related to the impression of healthinessto promote microorganisms from foodst...

Saccharomyces 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...

Potential of Probiotic Lactobacillus Strains as Food Additives

Value‐added probiotic development by high‐solid fermentation of sweet potato with Saccharomyces boulardii

Controlled fermentation of Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) var. Beauregard by yeast, Saccharomyces boulardii (MAY 796) to enhance the nutritional value of sweet potato was investigated. An average 8.00 × 1010 Colony Forming Units (CFU)/g of viable cells were obtained over 5-day high-solid fermentation. Yeast cell viability did not change significantly over time at 4°C whereas the number of viabl...
