Journal ArticleDOI
Adhesion of four Bifidobacterium strains to human intestinal mucus from subjects in different age groups.
TL;DR: Results suggest that reduced adhesion may be a factor involved in the decreasing colonisation of elderly subjects by bifidobacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
New methods for selecting and evaluating probiotics
Miguel Gueimonde,Seppo Salminen +1 more
TL;DR: Knowledge on intestinal microbiota, nutrition, immunity, immunity and mechanisms of action has increased dramatically and can now be combined with genomic data to allow the isolation and characterization of new target- or site-specific probiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adhesion of inactivated probiotic strains to intestinal mucus.
TL;DR: Inactivation by u.v. was concluded to be the most appropriate method for studying non‐viable probiotics and preparing control products.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It was shown that some probiotics can influence the composition of the intestinal microbiota and modulate the host immune system with measurable benefits to health, including the control of atopic eczema in infants with food allergy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids in growth medium on lipid composition and on physicochemical surface properties of lactobacilli.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that free PUFA in the growth medium induce changes in bacterial fatty acids in relation to the regulation of the degree of fatty acid unsaturation, cyclization, and proportions of CLA and PUFA containing 20 to 22 carbons.
