Saccharomyces cerevisiae boulardii is frequently used as a dietary supplement to promote intestinal health and reduce the impact of growth of enteric pathogens in livestock, including cattle and swine. Citrus by-products are also fed as dietary supplements that have the additional benefit of inhibiting the growth of enteric pathogens. Previous research identified that supplementation of Sacchar...

INTRODUCTION Saccharomyces boulardii is a well-known probiotic worldwide, and there are numerous studies including experimental and clinical trials in children and adults by the use of S. boulardii. AREAS COVERED The objective of the present report is to provide an update on the evidence for the efficacy of S. boulardii CNCM I-745 in different clinical conditions. Saccharomyces boulardii is o...

In this paper, comparative molecular studies between authentic Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, related species, and the strain described as Saccharomyces boulardii were performed. The response of a S. boulardii strain and a S. cerevisiae strain (W303) to different stress conditions was also evaluated. The results obtained in this study show that S. boulardii is genetically very close or nearl...

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy of Saccharomyces boulardii and lactic acid producing probiotics in addition to usual treatment regimen to cure diarrhea among children (6 months to 5 years of age). STUDY DESIGN Randomized controlled trial. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Department of Pediatrics, Sheikh Zayed Hospital, Lahore, from February to July 2015. METHODOLOGY Children suffering from a...

abstract: this study was aimed at probiotication of tomato and carrot juices using lactobacillus plantarum, lb. fermentum, lb. casei, lysinibacillus sphaericus and saccharomyces boulardii. to enhance the stability, the probiotic cultures were micro-encapsulated using alginate coated chitosan beads. tomato and carrot juice samples were pasteurized for 20 min at 63 °c. lb. fermentum, lb. plantara...

introduction: the purpose of this study was formulation and preparation of a proper culture medium for saccharomyces cerevisiae var. boulardii with molasses and animal serum. methods: a fully-crossed factorial design contain 5%, 10% and 20% of molasses (m) with 0, 1% and 5% animal serum (s) was used in this study. the ph of all culture medias were adjusted to 5.6 with acetic acid. the seed was ...

Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae but with distinct genetic, taxonomic, and metabolic properties. S. cerevisiae has been used extensively in biotechnological applications. a variety of strains are available, and multiple genetic tools have been developed, allowing the expression of exogenous proteins of interest with applications in the fields of m...

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...
