Abstract
An increased demand for natural products nowadays most specifically probiotics (PROs) is evident since it comes in conjunction with beneficial health effects for consumers. In this regard, it is well known that encapsulation could positively affect the PROs' viability throughout food manufacturing and long-term storage. This paper aims to analyze and review various double/multilayer strategies for encapsulation of PROs. Double-layer encapsulation of PROs by electrohydrodynamic atomization or electrospraying technology has been reported along with layer-by-layer assembly and water-in-oil-in-water (W1/O/W2) double emulsions to produce multilayer PROs-loaded carriers. Finally, their applications in food products are presented. The resistance and viability of loaded PROs to mechanical damage, during gastrointestinal transit and shelf life of these trapping systems, are also described. The PROs encapsulation in double- and multiple-layer coatings combined with other technologies can be examined to increase the opportunities for new functional products with amended functionalities opening a novel horizon in food technology.

Non-encapsulated, encapsulated, and lyophilized probiotic Limosilactobacillus reuteri SW23 influenced the growth and gut health in calves. Sci Rep 2024; 14:7657. [PMID: 38561353 PMCID: PMC10984972 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-57353-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
The present study was conducted to assess the impact of non-encapsulated, air-dried microencapsulated, and lyophilized microencapsulated probiotics in indigenous cattle calves (Bos indicus). Twenty-four (5-7 days old) indigenous cattle calves were selected and assigned into four groups, with six calves in each as follows: control (CON), fed milk and basal diet alone, and treatment groups supplemented with non-encapsulated (NEC), air-dried microencapsulated (AEC) and lyophilized microencapsulated (LEC) probiotic L. reuteri SW23 at 108 CFU/head/day in skim milk as a carrier provided for 60 days. The animals were divided into four groups, adopting a complete randomized design, and the effects were considered significant at p ≤ 0.05. Probiotics supplementation increased (p < 0.05) body weight gain (kg), average daily gain, and structural growth measurements in calves of all treatment groups. Dry matter intake (g/d), feed conversion efficiency, and fecal counts of Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria were also increased in the treatment groups compared to CON. The fecal consistency index was highest in CON (0.70 ± 0.03), followed by NEC (0.68 ± 0.01), AEC (0.66 ± 0.02), and LEC (0.65 ± 0.02). Fecal pH and ammonia levels were reduced (p < 0.05) in the probiotic-fed groups compared to CON, with a concomitant increase in fecal lactate, acetate, and propionate levels. In addition, cell-mediated and humoral immunity were significantly increased in supplemented groups as compared to CON. Thus, it can be concluded that supplementation of the probiotics in microencapsulated/non-encapsulated forms to neonatal calves had a variety of positive effects on their health, including better performance, improved gut health, and a lower fecal consistency index. Moreover, among all supplemented groups, the lyophilized microencapsulated group outperformed air-dried microencapsulated and non-microencapsulated groups in terms of ADG, DMI, and gut health.

Abstract
Consumers are increasingly showing a preference for foods whose nutritional and therapeutic value has been enhanced. Probiotics are live microorganisms, and their existence is associated with a number of positive effects in humans, as there are many and well-documented studies related to gut microbiota balance, the regulation of the immune system, and the maintenance of the intestinal mucosal barrier. Hence, probiotics are widely preferred by consumers, causing an increase in the corresponding food sector. As a consequence of this preference, food industries and those involved in food production are strongly interested in the occurrence of probiotics in food, as they have proven beneficial effects on human health when they exist in appropriate quantities. Encapsulation technology is a promising technique that aims to preserve probiotics by integrating them with other materials in order to ensure and improve their effectiveness. Encapsulated probiotics also show increased stability and survival in various stages related to their processing, storage, and gastrointestinal transit. This review focuses on the applications of encapsulation technology in probiotics in sustainable food production, including controlled release mechanisms and encapsulation techniques.

Abstract
To improve survival during storage and exposure to adverse conditions, Bacillus subtilis was microencapsulated with oat β-glucan by spray-drying technology. The characterisation of the microcapsules was designed to compare free and microencapsulated cells through exposure to simulated gastric fluids (SGF) throughout storage for 90 days at different temperatures. The characterisation included analysis of efficiency, morphology, moisture, water activity, hygroscopicity, particle size, and zeta potential. The microcapsules presented a particle size of 1.5 ± 0.34 μm and an encapsulation efficiency of 77.9 ± 3.06%. After SGF, the survival of microencapsulated cells was 8.4 ± 0.07 log CFU mL-1 while that of free cells was 7.6 ± 0.06 log CFU mL-1. After 90 days of storage, only microencapsulated cells remained above 6 log-unit of viability. In conclusion, spray-drying technique combined with the addition of oat β-glucan proved to be an efficient method to protect B. subtilis under storage and SGF with potential application in fish feed.

Abstract
The aim of the work was to evaluate antagonistic activity of Lactobacillus spp. and Bifidobacterium spp. in vitro against cariogenic Streptococcus mutans UA 159 and viability in chewing gum, during storage. Antagonistic activity was evaluated in vitro by the "spot on the lawn" test. Two bacteria were chosen and subjected to lyophilization and microencapsulation using the atomization method, containing polyvinylpyrrolidone polymer and lactose as encapsulating agents. For application in food matrices, four treatments were elaborated: chewing gum containing lyophilized B. lactis B94 (BLL), microencapsulated B. lactis B94 (BLE), lyophilized L. brevis (LBL), and microencapsulated L. brevis (LBE). Both microorganisms demonstrated a high capacity for inhibition against S. mutans, when compared to oral antiseptic chlorhexidine 0.2% in vitro, and according to the test of sensitivity profile to proteolytic enzymes, all the bacteria tested are producers of antimicrobial peptides, resulting in the inhibitory activity of the cariogenic bacterium. Furthermore, the viability of B. lactis B94 and L. brevis was maintained after microencapsulation, indicating that the process was efficient, with no significant difference (p < 0.05) between the results. And, in the chewing gum containing the bacteria during the storage period (33 days), it was found that cell immobilization did not significantly influence (p < 0.05) the counts of L. brevis but benefited the viability of B. lactis B94. Therefore, both probiotic bacteria are producers of antimicrobial substances with the ability to inhibit S. mutans, in vitro. The microencapsulation was considered efficient since it influenced the viability of B. lactis B94 (> 8 log CFU/g); however, the microencapsulation did not influence the viability of L. brevis since in both lyophilized and encapsulated form; the concentration of the bacteria remained above 8 log CFU/g during the storage period of the chewing gum.

Abstract
Pediococcus pentosaceus is a lactic acid bacterium that has probiotic potential proven by studies. However, its viability can be affected by adverse conditions such as storage, heat stress, and even gastrointestinal passage. Thus, the aim of the present study was to microencapsulate and characterize microcapsules obtained by spray drying and produced only with whey powder (W) or whey powder combined with pectin (WP) or xanthan (WX) in the protection of P. pentosaceus P107. In the storage test at temperatures of - 20 °C and 4 °C, the most viable microcapsule was WP (whey powder and pectin), although WX (whey powder and xanthan) presented better stability at 25 °C. In addition, WX did not show stability to ensure probiotic potential (< 6 Log CFU mL-1) for 110 days and the microcapsule W (whey powder) maintained probiotic viability at the three temperatures (- 20 °C, 4 °C, and 25 °C) for 180 days. In the exposition to simulated gastrointestinal juice, the WX microcapsule showed the best results in all tested conditions, presenting high cellular viability. For the thermal resistance test, WP microcapsule was shown to be efficient in the protection of P. pentosaceus P107 cells. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results showed that there was no chemical interaction between microcapsules of whey powder combined with xanthan or pectin. The three microcapsules produced were able to protect the cell viability of the microorganism, as well as the drying parameters were adequate for the microcapsules produced in this study.

Comparison of Electrostatic Spray Drying, Spray Drying, and Freeze Drying for Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG Dehydration. Foods 2023; 12:3117. [PMID: 37628116 PMCID: PMC10453923 DOI: 10.3390/foods12163117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Spray drying (SD) is extensively used to encapsulate lactic acid bacteria in large-scale industrial applications; however, bacteria combat several harms that reduce their viability. In this study, a novel technique called electrostatic spray drying (ESD) was used to explore the benefits and disadvantages of using electrostatic charge and lower temperatures in the system. Freeze drying (FD) was used as a reference. The effect of different encapsulation agents, like maltodextrin, arabic gum, and skim milk, on the viability of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) was investigated. The initial cell concentration, particle size distribution, aspect ratio, sphericity, scanning-electron-microscopy images, moisture content, water activity, glass transition, rehydration abilities, and survival during storage were compared. Skim milk was proven to be the best protectant for LGG, regardless of the drying process or storage time. A huge reduction in cell numbers (4.49 ± 0.06 log CFU/g) was observed with maltodextrin using SD; meanwhile, it was protected with minimum loss (8.64 ± 0.62 log CFU/g) with ESD. In general, ESD preserved more LGG cells during processing compared to SD, and provided better stability than FD and SD during storage, regardless of the applied voltage. The ESD product analysis demonstrated an efficient LGG preservation, close to FD; therefore, ESD presented to be a promising and scalable substitute for SD and FD.

Abstract
Co-encapsulation of acylglycerols and probiotics may improve the resistance of probiotics to adverse conditions. In this study, three probiotic microcapsule models were constructed using gelatin (GE)-gum arabic (GA) complex coacervate as wall material: microcapsules containing only probiotics (GE-GA), microcapsules containing triacylglycerol (TAG) oil and probiotics (GE-T-GA) and microcapsules containing diacylglycerol (DAG) oil and probiotics (GE-D-GA). The protective effects of three microcapsules on probiotic cells under environmental stresses (freeze-drying, heat treatment, simulated digestive fluid and storage) were evaluated. The results of cell membrane fatty acid composition and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy revealed that GE-D-GA could improve the fluidity of cell membrane, maintain the stability of protein and nucleic acid structure, and decrease the damage of cell membrane. These characteristics supported the high freeze-dried survival rate (96.24 %) of GE-D-GA. Furthermore, regardless of thermotolerance or storage, GE-D-GA showed the best cell viability retention. More importantly, GE-D-GA provided the best protection for probiotics under simulated gastrointestinal conditions, as the presence of DAG reduced cell damage during freeze-drying and the degree of contact between probiotics and digestive fluids. Therefore, co-microencapsulation of DAG oil and probiotics is a promising strategy to resist adverse conditions.

Abstract
Microencapsulation is an up-and-coming technology for maintaining the viability of probiotics. However, the effect of core-to-wall ratios and ratios of polysaccharides on the protection of the Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v strain has not been deeply discussed. Lyophilization of the Lp. plantarum 299v strain was conducted, and different core-to-wall ratios and ratios of maltodextrin (MD) and resistant starch (RS) were applied. Results demonstrated that the content of MD and RS had an influence on the yield and bulk density in both core-to-wall ratios (1:1 and 1:1.5). In addition, samples coated with a core-to-wall ratio of 1:1.5 had significantly higher viability than those coated with a core-to-wall ratio of 1:1. Moreover, samples coated with core-to-wall ratios of 1:1 and MD:RS 1:1, as well as core-to-wall ratios of 1:1.5 and MD:RS 3:1, had the highest cell number after simulated gastric fluid and simulated intestinal fluid testing, respectively. Furthermore, the optimal formulation for the application of microencapsulated Lp. plantarum 299v in apple juice (serving as a functional beverage) is listed as follows: core-to-wall ratios of 1:1 and MD:RS 1:1, with the fortification method, and stored at 4 °C. After 11 weeks of storage, the cell count was 8.28 log (CFU/mL). This study provided a strategy for Lp. plantarum 299v to achieve high viability in long-term storage and provides an application in functional apple beverages.

Abstract
IntroductionGamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), one of the main active components in Moringa oleifera leaves, can be widely used to treat multiple diseases including inflammation.MethodsIn this study, the anti-inflammatory activity and the underlying anti-inflammatory mechanism of the GABA-enriched Moringa oleifera leaves fermentation broth (MLFB) were investigated on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells model. The key active components changes like total flavonoids, total polyphenols and organic acid in the fermentation broth after fermentation was also analyzed.ResultsELISA, RT-qPCR and Western blot results indicated that MLFB could dose-dependently inhibit the secretions and intracellular expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines like 1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Furthermore, MLFB also suppressed the expressions of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Moreover, the mRNA expressions of the key molecules like Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB in the NF-κB signaling pathway were also restrained by MLFB in a dose-dependent manner. Besides, the key active components analysis result showed that the GABA, total polyphenols, and most organic acids like pyruvic acid, lactic acid as well as acetic acid were increased obviously after fermentation. The total flavonoids content in MLFB was still remained to be 32 mg/L though a downtrend was presented after fermentation.DiscussionOur results indicated that the MLFB could effectively alleviate LPS-induced inflammatory response by inhibiting the secretions of pro-inflammatory cytokines and its underlying mechanism might be associated with the inhibition of TLR-4/NF-κB inflammatory signaling pathway activation. The anti-inflammatory activity of MLFB might related to the relative high contents of GABA as well as other active constituents such as flavonoids, phenolics and organic acids in MLFB. Our study provides the theoretical basis for applying GABA-enriched Moringa oleifera leaves as a functional food ingredient in the precaution and treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Different plant products and co-products have been studied as wall materials for the microencapsulation of probiotics due to the need for new lost-cost, abundant, and natural materials. In this study, microparticles were developed by spray drying using different combinations of conventional materials such as maltodextrin, pectin, gelatin, and agar-agar with unconventional materials such as sweet potato flour to microencapsulate Lactiplantibacillus plantarum. The microparticles obtained were evaluated for encapsulation efficiency, thermal resistance, and rupture test. The most resistant microparticles were characterized and evaluated for probiotic viability during storage and survival to in vitro gastrointestinal conditions. Microparticles A (10 % maltodextrin, 5 % sweet potato flour, and 1 % pectin) and B (10 % maltodextrin, 4 % sweet potato flour, and 2 % gelatin) showed high thermal resistance (>59 %) and survival in acidic conditions (>80 %). L. plantarum in microparticles A and B remained viable with counts > 6 log CFU.g-1 for 45 days at 8 °C and -18 °C and resisted in vitro gastrointestinal conditions after processing with counts of 8.38 and 9.10 log CFU.g-1, respectively. Therefore, the selected microparticles have great potential for application in different products in the food industry, as they promote the protection and distribution of probiotic microorganisms.

Abstract
From the past few decades, consumers' demand for probiotic-based functional and healthy food products is rising exponentially. Encapsulation is an emerging field to protect probiotics from unfavorable conditions and to deliver probiotics at the target place while maintaining the controlled release in the colon. Probiotics have been encapsulated for decades using different encapsulation methods to maintain their viability during processing, storage, and digestion and to give health benefits. This review focuses on novel microencapsulation techniques of probiotic bacteria including vacuum drying, microwave drying, spray freeze drying, fluidized bed drying, impinging aerosol technology, hybridization system, ultrasonication with their recent advancement, and characteristics of the commonly used polymers have been briefly discussed. Other than novel techniques, characterization of microcapsules along with their mechanism of release and stability have shown great interest recently in developing novel functional food products with synergetic effects, especially in COVID-19 outbreak. A thorough discussion of novel processing technologies and applications in food products with the incorporation of recent research works is the novelty and highlight of this review paper.

Abstract
Protective agents used in spray drying protect the activity of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) by stabilizing the subcellular structures, constituting a protective layer at the cellular surface, or having mild drying kinetics. The effects of a reputed protectant, whey protein isolate (WPI), on Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) were examined by exposing the cells to WPI solution to induce protein adsorption at the cellular surface prior to spray drying. WPI-treated LGG demonstrated enhanced thermotolerance with cell survival increased by 1.64 log after heat treatment. The survival after spray drying was significantly decreased from 45.75% to 8.6% and from 32.96% to 10.44%, when the WPI-treated cells were resuspended in trehalose solution or reconstituted skimmed milk as protectant, respectively, associated with decreased growth capability and metabolic activity. The contact with WPI appeared to stimulate the cellular response of LGG. With well-maintained cell viability and intact cellular membrane, the metabolic activity of WPI-treated LGG was decreased, and subsequent resuspension of the cells in trehalose solution led to a reduction in the stability of the cellular surface charge. The WPI-treated cells showed marginally increased surface roughness, indicating possible WPI attachment, but there was no thick protein coverage at the cellular surface and the size distribution of cells was unaffected. It was proposed that the enhanced thermotolerance and the decreased survival of spray-dried LGG could be linked to the cellular response toward WPI and protectant media, which may vary among individual LAB strains. Modulating the strain-specific interactions between the LAB cells and the protectant constituents could be crucial to maximizing cell viability retention after spray drying.

Abstract
Probiotics are considered as desirable alternatives to antibiotics because of their beneficial effects on the safety and economy of farm animals. The protectant can ensure the viability of probiotics, which is the prerequisite of the beneficial effects. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of a novel nano-protectant containing trehalose, skim milk powder, phytoglycogen nanoparticles, and nano-phytoglycogen Pickering emulsions on the viability of Lactobacillus casei K17 under different conditions. The results indicated that the optimal concentration of the carbohydrate substrate was determined to be 10% skim milk powder (w/w) instead of trehalose. The combination of 10% skim milk powder (w/w), 1% phytoglycogen nanoparticles (w/w), and 10% Pickering emulsions (w/w) was selected as the optimal component of the protectant. Trilayer protectants with an optimal component had a more significant protective effect on the bacteria than that of the monolayer and bilayer protectants, or the control in feed storage, freeze-drying, and simulated gastrointestinal environment. A scanning electron microscope was used to monitor the morphological characteristics of the protectants for different layers on L. casei. In conclusion, the trilayer protectant exhibited a substantial effect on L. casei during storage and consumption, which could be used in the feed and functional food.

Abstract
L. lactis is known as industrial starter in the fermentation of dairy and meat products, and it plays an important role in human health as an edible probiotic. During industrial production, L. lactis often experiences different stresses that delay the growth and decrease the survival in some serious conditions. In this study, the protective effects of hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HP β-CD) on L. lactis under multiple stresses were investigated. The microbial cells were treated with different stresses including heat, NaCl, cold, and H2 O2 stresses, and the results were showed by measuring the OD600 or spot plating method. The growth and tolerance were improved when HP β-CD was added during different stress conditions, better than that of trehalose. Besides, the scanning electron microscopic and fluorescence spectrum studies showed that HP β-CD could combine with L. lactis to protect the cell structure, suggesting that HP β-CD may act as a protective agent of L. lactis. Therefore, HP β-CD could be considered as a potential protective agent to be applied in food industry, and its protective mechanism on L. lactis still needs further investigation.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the efficiency of bovine (CW) and buffalo cheese whey (BCW) as encapsulating agents for the spray-drying (SD) of endogenous Lactobacillus pentosus ML 82 and the reference strain Lactobacillus plantarum ATCC 8014. Their protective features were also tested for resistance to storage (90 days, 25 °C), simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) conditions, and for their application in orange juice. Survival rates after SD were approximately 95% in all samples tested, meaning both CW and BCW performed satisfactorily. After 90 days of storage, both species remained above 7 log Colony Forming Units (CFU)/g. However, CW generally enabled higher bacterial viability throughout this period. CW microcapsule characteristics were also more stable, which is indicated by the fact that BCW had higher moist content. Under GIT conditions, encapsulated lactobacilli had higher survival rates than free cells regardless of encapsulating agent. Even so, results indicate that CW and BCW perform better under gastric conditions than intestinal conditions. Regarding their use in orange juice, coating materials were probably dissolved due to low pH, and both free and encapsulated bacteria had similar survival rates. Overall, CW and BCW are suitable encapsulating agents for lactic acid bacteria, as they provided protection during storage and against harmful GIT conditions.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to determine the effect of the carrier material, drying technology and dissolution media during the passage of L. fermentum K73 through a dynamic in vitro digestion system (IViDiS). The carrier materials were (i) culture medium with growing micro-organisms and (ii) culture medium with maltodextrin : sweet whey [0.6 : 0.4]. The carrier materials were dried by spray-drying and freeze-drying to obtain four types of powders. The dissolution media consisted of water and 1% fat milk. The powders were tested using an in vitro dynamic digestion system (IViDiS). The results showed that powders derived from culture medium had the highest protective effect on the viability of L. fermentum K73 in both dissolution media and that survival increased when the powders were tested in milk. The modified Gompertz model was used to model L. fermentum K73 behaviour during the digestion process. The model showed that cells entrapped in culture medium had the longest lag phase and the slowest inactivation rate when evaluated in milk.

Abstract
Natural bioactive compounds and living cells have been reported as promising products with beneficial properties to human health. The constant challenge regarding the use of these components is their easy degradation during processing and storage. However, their stability can be improved with the microencapsulation process, in which a compound sensitive to adverse environmental conditions is retained within a protective polymeric material. Microencapsulation is a widely used methodology for the preservation and stabilization of functional compounds for food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. The present review discusses advances in the production and application of microcapsules loaded with functional compounds in food products. The main methods for producing microcapsules, as well as the classes of functional compounds and wall materials used, are presented. Additionally, the release of compounds from loaded microcapsules in food matrices and in simulated gastrointestinal conditions is also assessed.

Abstract
Many natural food bioactive ingredients are sensitive to processing and environmental conditions and thus it is necessary to improve their stability to create products with long shelf lives. Encapsulation by spray drying is a widely used economical strategy to tackle this issue, and many scientists and manufacturers are using it in their research, development, and production activities. In this review, the spray-drying process is described, as are recent trends in the encapsulation of fish oils, essential fatty acids, probiotics, phenolic compounds, and natural food colorants. The formulation and process conditions used in previous research and the results obtained are tabulated. Also, new innovations in bioactive encapsulation using nano-spray drying are described.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of encapsulation with maltodextrin and reconstituted skim milk (RSM) and their binary and ternary blends with gum arabic (GA) by spray and freeze drying methods on viability of probiotic Lactobacillus casei Shirota under different stress conditions were evaluated. All microcapsules showed high survival ratios (7.91-9.37 log cfu/g) after microencapsulation. The viability of microencapsulated cells was significantly higher than free cells when exposed to stress conditions. Spray dried microcapsules exposed to low pH showed small decrease in the viability of cells compared to freeze dried microcapsules, but freeze drying microcapsules showed higher protective effect at 85 and 90 °C. After exposure to 3% bile salt, almost 2.5 log decreases in the encapsulated cell counts were determined for both methods. The results indicated that using RSM:GA mixture as an encapsulating agent showed the higher cell protection against high temperature, acidic pH and bile salts.

Abstract
The present study aimed to optimise the microencapsulation of Lactobacillus acidophilus La-05 by spray drying, using soy extract and maltodextrin as encapsulants. Air inlet temperature, maltodextrin/soy extract ratio and feed flow rate were investigated through Central Composite Rotational Design (CCRD). Probiotic viability increased with increasing the proportion of soy extract. Temperature and feed flow rate had a negative effect. Particle diameter ranged from 4.97 to 8.82 μm, water activity from 0.25 to 0.52 and moisture from 2.30 to 7.01 g.100g-1 Particles produced following the optimised conditions (air temperature of 87 °C, maltodextrin/soy extract ratio of 2:3 w.w-1, feed flow rate of 0.54 L.h-1) reached Encapsulation yield (EY) of 83%. Thermogravimetry and FTIR analysis suggested that microcapsules could protect L. acidophilus cells against dehydration and heating. During storage, microencapsulated probiotic had high cell viability (reductions ranged between 0.12 and 1.72 log cycles). Soy extract/maltodextrin presented well-encapsulating properties of Lactobacillus acidophilus La-05.

Abstract
The Lactobacillus casei group (LCG), composed of the closely related Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus paracasei, and Lactobacillus rhamnosus are some of the most widely researched and applied probiotic species of lactobacilli. The three species have been extensively studied, classified and reclassified due to their health promoting properties. Differentiation is often difficult by conventional phenotypic and genotypic methods and therefore new methods are being continually developed to distinguish the three closely related species. The group remain of interest as probiotics, and their use is widespread in industry. Much research has focused in recent years on their application for health promotion in treatment or prevention of a number of diseases and disorders. The LCG have the potential to be used prophylactically or therapeutically in diseases associated with a disturbance to the gut microbiota. The group have been extensively researched with regard to stress responses, which are crucial for their survival and therefore application as probiotics.
