Survival and behavior of free and encapsulated probiotic bacteria under simulated human gastrointestinal and technological conditions

摘要

The present study was designed with the objective to compare the viability and stability of free and encapsulated probiotics under simulated technological and human gastrointestinal conditions. was encapsulated using two wall materials (sodium alginate, soy protein isolate, and SA‐SPI) by extrusion method for enhanced viability under stressed conditions. Free and encapsulated probiotics were subjected to some simulated technological and gastrointestinal conditions. Furthermore, free and encapsulated probiotics were also incorporated in dairy dessert to evaluate the viability and stability during storage. Encapsulation using sodium alginate and SPI as a coating materials significantly (
