  • probiotic lactobacilli in a semi soft Cheese survive in the simulated human gastrointestinal tract
    International Dairy Journal, 2009
    Co-Authors: Henna Mäkeläinen, Sofia Forssten, Linda Granlund, Kaisa Olli, Nina Rautonen, Arthur C. Ouwehand
    Abstract:

    In this study, probiotics Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM and Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001 in Cheese were studied using models simulating the human gastrointestinal tract with the aim of investigating whether the Cheese matrix affected the survival and metabolic properties of these probiotic strains. Probiotics in Cheese survived in the simulated upper gastrointestinal tract model, and numbers of L. acidophilus, L. rhamnosus and total lactobacilli were increased in the colonic fermentation simulations of the probiotic Cheese when compared with the non-probiotic Cheese used as a control. The Cheese matrix also beneficially affected cyclooxygenase-gene expression of colonocytes in a cell culture model. Freeze-dried probiotics, which were also analysed in the colonic simulator, showed similar changes in Lactobacillus numbers, although gave a stronger increase and also affected other microbial groups. These results indicate that the probiotic microbes in Cheese survive in the gastrointestinal tract and that the Cheese matrix does not seem to affect the probiotic survival.
