Viability of microencapsulated Lactobacillus acidophilus by complex coacervation associated with enzymatic crosslinking under application in different fruit juices.

The objective of this study was to produce microcapsules containing Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-02 by complex coacervation followed by crosslinking with transglutaminase and to evaluate the effect of their addition on different fruit juices, as well as the probiotic viability of L. acidophilus and its effect on fruit juices during storage. To this end, L.
