(iii) combining the viable probiotic, the protective matrix and water to produce a ของผสม, (iv) drying the ของผสม to a final moisture content of about 4% or less, and (v) adding the dried ของผสม to a powdered nutritional product.
In such an embodiment, the viable probiotic may be Lactobacilfus rhamnosus.
[0012] These aspects and others that will become apparent to the skilled artisan upon review of the following description can be accomplished by providing a ของผสม ที่รวมถึง hydrolyzed mammalian protein for the stabilization of biological material, such as probiotics, to provide for increased stability of the biological material, resulting in the improved, long-term viability of the biological material. ในรุรุหนึ่ง, the stabilization ของผสม advantageously provides for an extension of the shelf-life of probiotics such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus when compared to the use of non• hydrolyzed or hydrolyzed non-mammalian protein. The stabilization ของผสม may be
combined with the probiotic in a variety of methods ที่รวมถึง freeze drying, air drying, vacuum drying, spray drying and สารรวมใดๆ ดังกล่าว for preserving the probiotic. [0013] It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description provide รุรุ of the disclosure and are intended to provide an overview or framework of understanding to the nature and character of the disclosure as it is ข้อถือสิทธิed.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0014] รูป 1 is a graph that illustrates the stability of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) in a protective matrix (per the formulation presented in Table 1 hereinbelow) in a growing up milk having an available water (Aw) content of 0.28.
[0015] รูป 2 is a graph that illustrates the stability of LGG without a protective matrix in a growing up milk having an available water (Aw) content of 0.28.
[0016] รูป 3 presents scanning electron micrographs of stabilized LGG in a protective matrix (per the formulation presented in Table 1 hereinbelow).
