[ 2 ] - Beneficial Effects of Inactive and Non-Viable Probiotics on Health
According to the World Health Organization, viable probiotics could have health effects. However, in recent years, many benefits have been observed through application of inactive and non-viable cells of microbes or their metabolites. Therefore, probiotics could be defined as viable, inactive, or non-viable microbial cells or cell extracts that have beneficial health effects on the host. Based...
[ 3 ] - Development and Characterization of a Novel Edible Film Based on Carboxymethylcellulose-Beta-Glucan Containing Inulin: Mechanical, Barrier and Structural Characteristics
Background and Objectives: Bioactive packaging systems (coatings/films) are novel technology concepts in food industries. Bioactive compounds such as antioxidants, vitamins, probiotics and prebiotics are designed to be included in coatings or coating materials that directly affect health of consumers. The aim of this study was to assess feasibility of producing prebiotic edible films by adding ...
