B. bifidum MIMBb75 is a probiotic strain isolated from a healthy adult. [15] It is recognized for its strong adhesion to intestinal cells and its role in immune system modulation. [ 16 ] The strain has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and is available as a pharmaceutical probiotic product in ...
As probiotic activity varies among strains of B. longum, interest exists in the exact classification of new strains, although this is made difficult by the high gene similarity between the three biotypes. [10] Currently, strain identification is done through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on the subtly different 16S rRNA gene sequences. [10]
The sensitivity of members of the genus Bifidobacterium to O 2 generally limits probiotic activity to anaerobic habitats. Recent research has reported that some Bifidobacterium strains exhibit various types of oxic growth. Low concentrations of O 2 and CO 2 can have a stimulatory effect on the growth of these Bifidobacterium strains.
The potential efficacy of probiotics to treat AAD depends on the probiotic strains and dosage. [ 100 ] [ 101 ] One review recommended for children L. rhamnosus or Saccharomyces boulardii at 5 to 40 billion colony-forming units/day, given the modest number needed to treat and the likelihood that adverse events are very rare. [ 94 ]
The positive effects depend on the specific strain and its dose. [24] In 2003, the probiotics (also called functional foods) market was worth $9.9 billion. [25] These products are also heavily marketed and more expensive than non-probiotic dairy products. In 2009, in the United Kingdom, 60% of households regularly bought probiotic drinks.
Some strains of L. d. bulgaricus, such as L. bulgaricus GLB44, also produce bacteriocins, [11] which have been shown to kill undesired bacteria in vitro. The viability of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus is extremely important in that it is necessary for it to be efficient at fermentation and to effectively keep the food products it ...
