Application of Probiotics
Research indicates a wide range of health benefits of probiotics to the host, which stimulates the development of functional products supplemented with probiotics. The past 20 years witnessed the increased interest of consumers in probiotics derived products. The presence of probiotics in commercial products provides certain health benefits, leading to various applications of probiotics in the market. Creative Enzymes, as a leading probiotic developer, provides excellent probiotic strains and product solutions for the pharmaceutical industry, food industry, livestock and agriculture, continually expanding the applications and health benefits of probiotics for us.
Applications of Probiotics in Disease Control
Probiotics are known to have immunomodulatory effects on their hosts, making them a promising therapeutic and preventive option for a variety of diseases. The strongest evidence for the clinical effectiveness of probiotics is for the prevention of lactose intolerance symptoms, treatment of acute diarrhea, mitigation of antibiotic-related gastrointestinal side effects, and prevention and treatment of allergic manifestations. In addition, probiotics have shown strong potential in the treatment of metabolism-related diseases, cancer prevention, oral health and many other areas.
Application of Probiotics in Foods
Milk and milk-related products are ideal vehicle of probiotic strains due to their inherent properties. Probiotics can be found in a wide variety of commercial dairy products, such as fresh milk, yogurt, and cheese. Most milk and milk products are stored at refrigerated temperatures, which provide a suitable environment for probiotic bacteria before they are delivered to human body. With an increase in the consumer vegetarianism throughout the developed countries, probiotics have shown great potential for use in the fermentation of fruit and vegetable products, and cereal products. In addition, the application of probiotics in the fermentation of meat products and in the brewing industries has provided the food market and consumers with numerous nutritious and delicious foods.
Application of Probiotics in Feed Additives
Probiotic feed additives provide a way to supplement the probiotic content of feed by adding strains of bacteria that may be more beneficial to livestock. The main applications of probiotic feed additives are in the production of meat, dairy products and eggs. The addition of probiotics to the diet of livestock (especially cattle and pigs) and poultry is effective in improving growth performance, feed conversion, modulating the host immune response and helping to combat intestinal pathogens.
Application of Probiotics in Plant Health
Plant probiotics are considered to be promising candidates for sustainable agriculture. Like humans, plants also have microbiota. Beneficial microorganisms in the soil can increase soil fertility, enhance the uptake of soil nutrients by plants, improve the immune system of plants, and help plants increase their resistance to harmful pathogens. Therefore, the development of products based on microbial formulations and inducers that are beneficial to plants has great potential to improve plant health, reduce the use of chemical pesticides, and increase crop yields.
