The application discloses Lactobacillus strains having a beneficial effect on the metabolic health on a mammalian subject. Further disclosed is compositions comprising such strains and the use thereof for improving the metabolic health or for lowering the blood glucose level in a mammalian subject.

In some illustrative embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a method for treating or preventing an inflammatory condition of a patient comprising the step of administering a therapeutically effective amount of Next Generation Bioengineered Probiotics (NGBP), together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, and excipients, to the patient in need of relief from said inflammatory condition. In some other embodiments, the present application relates to an animal feed supplement for improving animal health and meat production compromising Next Generation Bioengineered Probiotics (NGBP). Yet in some other embodiments, the present invention relates to method for improving animal health and/or meat production comprising the step of adding an effective amount of Next Generation Bioengineered Probiotics (NGBP) to the feed of said animal.

A probiotic for inhibiting growth of Proteus mirabilis, including a microorganism selected from the group consisting of Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus reuteri, Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis, Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium bifidum and a combination thereof. A fermentation broth and an application of the probiotic are further provided.

The present invention relates to a novel Lactobacillus strain that is not attacked by common phages and a novel Lactobacillus strain with improved cell count stability, its use in the manufacture of fermented milk-based products, and novel milk based products containing the strain.

The invention relates to probiotic compositions, sachets, and nutritional supplements comprising a probiotic bacterium capable of an adaptive response resulting from growth in the presence of pomegranate extract, as well as methods of selecting, producing, and using thereof.

A proliferation promoting effect on lactic acid bacteria during production and a viability improving effect during storage are obtained by a method for producing a lactic acid bacterium fermentation food product characterized in that when a lactic acid bacterium fermentation food product is produced by inoculating and culturing lactic acid bacteria in a medium containing a milk or a milk product as a main component, a lipase degradation product of an oil or fat is added to the medium containing a milk or a milk product as a main component before culturing lactic acid bacteria, or to a fermented liquid during or after culturing.

The present application belongs to the technical field of research and development of fermented beverages, and a method for preparing Cordyceps militaris ferment by two-stage fermentation and complex enzymatic hydrolysis is provided. The present application involves preparation of a Cordyceps militaris powder and a Cordyceps militaris slurry, preparation of a Cordyceps militaris fermentation substrate, lactic acid bacteria fermentation in combination with complex enzymatic hydrolysis, and yeast fermentation, followed by centrifugation, filtration, formulation, sterilization, and filling to obtain a product. By employing lactic acid bacteria fermentation in combination with complex enzymatic hydrolysis, and secondary fermentation by yeast, the present application can quickly finish a whole fermentation process in 2 to 3 days.

By a method for producing a culture for obtaining a culture by culturing a lactic acid bacterium and/or a bacterium belonging to the genus Bifidobacterium in a milk peptide-containing medium which is characterized in that a culture temperature is 3° C. or more lower than an optimum culture temperature of the lactic acid bacterium and/or the bacterium belonging to the genus Bifidobacterium, the change in the acidity during the storage of the product is not accelerated, and the bacterial count at the time of the preparation of the product can be maintained at a high level, even when the lactic acid bacterium or the like is cultured in a medium containing a milk peptide added thereto.

The present invention belongs to the technical field of beverages, and relates to a probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable puree composition containing active bacteria and its preparation method. The composition containing active bacteria is obtained by fermenting fruit and vegetable puree with Lactobacillus casei NCU215. The probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable puree has the following characteristics: the probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable puree may generate a natural mellow sour, effectively remove an astringency in fruit and a wild Artemisia flavor in vegetable, and neutralize an unpleasant sour in the fruit; with probiotic fermentation, the present invention may improve a content of amino acid in the fruit and vegetable by 20% or more, generate multiple aromatic substances, improve a flavor substance by 30% or more, and effectively improve a taste and a mouthfeel of the product; the present invention prolongs a shelf life of the product and prevents rot.

This document provides dietary supplement compositions. For example, multi-supplement compositions having combinations of dietary supplement formulations useful for human or animal consumption are provided.
