TLDR
Two potential probiotic strains namely Staphylococcus succinus and Enterococcus fecium selected from previous probiotic property studies were co-encapsulated with complementary prebiotics and showed significant improvement in viability compared to free cells under in vitro acidic conditions.Abstract:
Two potential probiotic strains namely Staphylococcus succinus (MAbB4) and Enterococcus fecium (FIdM3) selected from previous probiotic property studies were co-encapsulated with complementary prebiotics. Two different prebiotics selected by in vitro fermentation viz. sugarbeet and chicory were separately encapsulated with both the strains in 2 g/100 mL alginate and were tested for the efficiency in improving the viability compared to free cells under in vitro acidic conditions. Results indicated significant improvement (Pread more

The Bifidogenic Nature of Chicory Inulin and Its Hydrolysis Products
TL;DR: In vitro fermentation of inulin revealed that molecules with a chain length (degree of polymerization or DP) > 10 are fermented on average half as quickly as molecule with a DP < 10, and all beta(2-1)fructans are bifidogenic and classified as biobiotics.
