Non Replicative Probiotic Delivery Systems in Fermented Dairy
Delivering viable probiotics through fermented dairy products presents significant technical hurdles in maintaining bacterial survival rates. Current data shows that traditional delivery methods result in only 10-20% survival of probiotic strains through gastric passage, with cell counts often dropping below the clinically effective threshold of 106-107 CFU/g by the time of consumption.
The fundamental challenge lies in balancing probiotic viability during processing and storage while maintaining the organoleptic properties and structural stability of the dairy matrix.
This page brings together solutions from recent research—including enhanced acid-resistant strains like L. paracasei 1338, microencapsulation techniques for improved survival, and novel strain selection approaches focusing on metabolic capabilities and stress resistance. These and other approaches aim to ensure consistent delivery of therapeutic probiotic doses through commercially viable dairy products.

6. Method for Culturing E. hallii Using Food-Grade Medium with Controlled Stress Treatments
CAELUS PHARMACEUTICALS B V, 2018
A method for culturing E. hallii, a probiotic bacterium, that enables high biomass yields suitable for human administration. The method employs a simple medium comprising food-grade components only, free from animal-derived products and kosher ingredients, which supports the growth of E. hallii. The medium is optimized through controlled stress treatments during cultivation, including mild oxidative stress, pH adjustment, and cryoprotection, to enhance the bacterium's survival and productivity. This medium enables E. hallii to be cultured to high cell densities, making it suitable for administration to humans, particularly for conditions like insulin resistance and inflammatory bowel disease.
7. Method for Producing Yogurt Using Specific Starter Strains and Oil Fermentation Bacteria for Enhanced Bacterial Survival
BIORESOURCE INC, 2017
Method for producing yogurt that enables lactic acid bacteria to survive in the intestinal environment. The method involves using a combination of specific starter strains, including Lactobacillus acidophilus CH5, Streptococcus thermophilus ST1, and Bifidobacterium longum, in addition to the traditional lactic acid bacteria. The starter strains are combined with oil fermentation bacteria, such as Lactococcus lactis JNU534, KCCM-10869P, and fermenting oil, to create a unique fermentation environment that supports the survival of these beneficial bacteria in the gut. This approach enables yogurt production that can withstand the natural competition of the gut microbiome, making it an attractive alternative to conventional yogurt production methods that rely on hot-processed lactic acid bacteria.
