The aim of this study was to determine the suitability of different doses (0, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2%) of coffee extract on fermentation and survival of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum in milk and yoghurt. The produced samples were examined in terms of pH, acidity and microbial count during incubation period and permanence. The number of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacte...

regarding the unique properties of camel milk, it can be used as a nutraceutical product. in this study, the effect of different variables on the quality characteristics of synbiotic yoghurt made from camel milk was studied. independent variables (all in three levels) in this study were: β-glucan (prebiotic agent)  0 - 1 - 2%, fat content 0 - 2.5 - 5%, the amount of probiotic bacteria 0.5 - 1 –...

the suitability of milk preserved by refrigeration and co2 addition for the manufacture of plain yoghurt using two commercial strains of lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus and streptoccocus thermophilus and probiotic yoghurt by lactobacillus acidophilus was evaluated. yoghurts (plain and probiotic) manufactured after milk pasteurization, from fresh and refrigerated co2 treated samples (p...

Probiotics are live micro-organisms that when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host. Consumption of yoghurt has been shown to induce measurable health benefits linked to the presence of live bacteria. A number of human studies have clearly demonstrated that yoghurt containing viable bacteria (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii sp. bulgaricus)...

D a t a s o u r c e s Studies were identified by searching MEDLINE, EMBASE/Excerpta Medica, the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register, DARE, and CINAHL from 1966 to 2000, and AMED, MANTIS, the Complementary and Alternative Medicine Citation Index, and AltHealthWatch from 1985 to 2000. Search terms used were diarrhea, gastroenteritis, or rotavirus combined with competitive inhibition, Lactobacillu...

This trial was designed to assess the effect of live probiotic consumption on leucine assimilation from fresh and pasteurised yoghurt in volunteers with different lactose digestibility. Thirty-three volunteers (mean age 32, s.d. 7 years) participated in this parallel single-blind study (16 of them with moderate lactose intolerance). Breath samples were taken before and at 15 min intervals over ...

chicory plant (dorema aucheri) belongs to asteraceae family and contains flavonoids. milk is a mixture of protein, fat, lactose, minerals. this research carried out in order to evaluate the effect of chicory plant on the activities of bifidobacterium bifidum and lactobacillus acidophilus. four containers containing a liter of 1.5 % sterilized skim milk were selected as four group in order to pr...
