Abstract
The suitability of hydrolysate (ready-to-drink beverage) from provitamin A cassava (PAC) starch as a carrier for probiotic Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) was evaluated. PAC starch was hydrolysed by α-amylase and glucoamylase. The PAC starch hydrolysate, fermented with free or alginate-encapsulated LGG (at 37 °C, 48 hours), was evaluated for lactic acid production (using high-performance liquid chromatography), descriptive sensory attributes on a 9-point hedonic scale and total viable counts of LGG cells in PAC hydrolysate during fermentation and storage (4 °C, 60 days). Analysis of variance was conducted and statistical significance was accepted at p< 0.05.Lactic acid was significantly (p< 0.05) produced in PAC hydrolysate with LGG during fermentation (1980-5480 mg/L), and storage (up to 13676.90 mg/L). LGG maintained significant viability in PAC hydrolysate after fermentation (9 log CFU/mL) and 60 days of storage (5 log CFU/mL). LGG-fermented PAC hydrolysate showed significant overall acceptability of 49.56-56.33% in sensory attributes.PAC hydrolysate with LGG showed significant acceptability and offered adequate support for the metabolism of LGG, evidenced by a significant production of lactic acid during fermentation and refrigerated (4 °C) storage, with adequate viability. Therefore, PAC is a suitable non-dairy carrier for probiotic LGG.

Phenolic, flavonoid, and β-carotene contents of provitamin A cassava hydrolysate with free and encapsulated Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG improves antioxidant biomarkers in kidney, heart and liver of Wistar rats. J Food Sci 2023; 88:491-502. [PMID: 36448622 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2021] [Revised: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
In vitro antioxidant activity and possible in vivo antioxidative effects of provitamin A cassava hydrolysate inoculated with free or encapsulated Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG), a ready-to-drink probiotic beverage containing natural β-carotene and other phytochemicals, were evaluated. Provitamin A cassava was orally administered to male Wistar rats (n = 40, 120-150 g) for 30 days. Regression analysis showed the phenolic and total flavonoid contents of provitamin A cassava hydrolysate contributed 68% and 95%, respectively, to the antioxidant activity (by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl assay) (83.3 ± 1.8-87 ± 1.8%). in vivo study showed that malondialdehyde and superoxide dismutase activities were lowered or unchanged with a significant increase in antioxidant biomarkers (reduced glutathione, glutathione-S-transferase, and glutathione peroxidase) in the kidney, heart, and liver of all rats administered provitamin A cassava hydrolysate with LGG, especially at doses 2 × 1010 CFU, compared to control. Provitamin A cassava hydrolysate with LGG showed significant antioxidant activity In vitro and in vivo, thus indicating its potential usefulness in the food industry as an antioxidant beverage. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This study reports the antioxidant properties of provitamin A cassava hydrolysate, which can be consumed as a refreshing beverage while also delivering antioxidant benefits. In the food and beverage industry, provitamin A cassava hydrolysate could be applied as a nutraceutical beverage with therapeutic functions. This product innovation increases the value-addition of cassava and expands the nondairy food matrix options used as probiotic carriers.

Probiotics encapsulated gastroprotective cross-linked microgels: Enhanced viability under stressed conditions with dried apple carrier. Food Sci Nutr 2022; 11:817-827. [PMID: 36789050 PMCID: PMC9922151 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.3116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2022] [Revised: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 10/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
In the current study, Lactobacillus acidophilus was encapsulated in sodium alginate and whey protein isolate, with the addition of antacids CaCO3 or Mg(OH)2. The obtained microgels were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Encapsulated and free probiotics were subjected to vitality assay under stressed conditions. Furthermore, dried apple snack was evaluated as a carrier for probiotics for 28 days. A significant (p ≤ .05) effect of antacid with an encapsulating agent was observed under different stressed conditions. During exposure to simulated gastrointestinal conditions, there were observations of 1.24 log CFU and 2.17 log CFU, with corresponding 0.93 log CFU and 2.63 log CFU decrease in the case of SA + CaCO3 and WPI + CaCO3 respectively. Likewise, high viability was observed under thermal and refrigerated conditions for probiotics encapsulated with SA + CaCO3. In conclusion, the results indicated that alginate microgels with CaCO3 are effective in prolonging the viability of probiotics under stressed conditions.

The beneficial effects of Lacticaseibacillus casei on the small intestine and colon of Swiss mice against the deleterious effects of 5-fluorouracil. Front Immunol 2022; 13:954885. [PMID: 36341441 PMCID: PMC9635922 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.954885] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 09/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal mucositis is one of the most common and important side effects of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Currently, there are still no specific and effective protocols for its prevention and treatment. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of oral administration of Lacticaseibacillus casei (L. casei) on the progression of 5-FU-induced intestinal mucositis. Methods: L. casei (1x109 CFU/ml) or saline was orally administered to Swiss mice, beginning 15 days before intestinal mucositis induction by single intraperitoneal 5-FU administration (450 mg/kg). Body weight, number of peripheral leukocytes and fecal lactic acid bacteria were monitored. After euthanasia, on day 18, tissue samples from colon and each small intestine segment were collected for histopathology. Jejunal tissues were collected and evaluated for iNOS and TNF-alpha immunoexpression, IL-1-beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha levels, malonaldehyde (MDA) accumulation, invertase activity and factor nuclear kappa B (NFkB-P65) gene expression, toll like receptor-4 (TLR-4), mucin-2 (MUC-2), occludin and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1). RESULTS The positive impact of L. casei on 5-FU-induced leukopenia was observed, but not on 5-FU-induced weight loss in mice. L. casei reduced 5-FU-induced inflammation in the colon and small intestine (p<0.05). Decreased TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 (p<0.05) and MDA (p<0.05) levels, as well as decreased iNOS and TNF-alpha protein expressions (p<0.05) were found in the jejunum from L casei group. In addition, L-casei down-regulated NFKB-P65 (p<0.05) and TLR-4 (p<0.05) gene expressions and up-regulated MUC-2 and mucosal barrier proteins occludin and ZO-1 gene expressions (p<0.05). Furthermore, greater lactic acid bacteria population (p<0.05) was found in the L. casei group when compared to control groups. CONCLUSION Oral L. casei administration can protect the intestine of Swiss mice from 5-FU-induced intestinal mucositis, thus contributing to overall health.
