Three probiotic lactobacilli strains were spray-dried in 20% (w/v) skim milk and submitted to a simulated gastrointestinal digestion. Fresh or spray-dried cultures were administered to mice for 5 and 10 days, and Immunoglobulin ...

Aims: This work aims to investigate the survival of Lactobacillus kefir CIDCA 8348, Lactobacillus plantarum CIDCA 83114 and Saccharomyces lipolytica CIDCA 812, all isolated from kefir, during spray drying and subsequent ...

Spray-drying of lactic cultures provides direct-to-vat starters, which facilitate their commercialization and use. However, this process may alter the metabolic activity and deteriorate technological features. In this work, ...

Aims: To evaluate the effects of spray drying of Lactobacillus rhamnosus 64 on its capacity to modulate the gut immune response and on the attenuation of TNBS‐induced colitis in mice. Methods and Results: Lactobacillus ...

Ciprofloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic for treatment of pulmonary diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cystic fibrosis. The purpose of this work was to rationally study the spray drying of ...

In this work maltodextrins were added to commercial galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) in a 1:1 ratio and their thermophysical characteristics were analyzed. GOS:MD solutions were then used as matrices during spray-drying of ...

Oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions of okara oil-caseinate (1:2; 1:3 and 1:4 O/W ratios) were used to encapsulate Lactobacillus plantarum CIDCA 83114. Once encapsulated, microorganisms were freeze-dried or spray-dried, and observed ...
