Microencapsulated Lactobacillus Powder: An Approach to Produce Probiotics Resistant to Different Stress Conditions
Since the effectiveness of probiotic consumption is related to the viability of microorganisms, it is important to minimize cell death during thermal, storage, mechanical, and digestive processes to ensure minimal loss of viability. Therefore, a method for encapsulating Lactobacillus spp. was successfully developed based on a fatty acid-stabilized emulsion formulation to provide protection against various stress conditions.
