Probiotics

The term “probiotic” was derived from Greek and means “for life.” Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms that confer a health benefit to the host when administered in adequate amounts proposed for probiotics. Common probiotics include lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. Also, other microbial species, besides lactic acid bacteria (LAB), like Bacillus subtilis; Propionibacterium spp. and yeasts have been used as probiotics.

Probiotic products may be conventional foods consumed for nutritional purposes, but also for the probiotic effect. Probiotic preparations used as food supplement can consist of one single strain or of mixed cultures of two or even more strains.

Various functional health promoting of  probiotic Lactobacillus strains properties have been described, including high antimicrobial activity against pathogens, blood pressure lowering, cholesterol-lowering effects, antioxidative properties, and immunogenic potential etc.

However, not all properties are common for all probiotics. Strain-specific differences exist among the Lactobacillus  spp, especially regarding unique strain-specific health effects  associated with significant differences in the production of specific metabolites.
