Preterm birth, C-sections, antibiotics, and limited breastfeeding contribute to the increase in noncommunicable diseases. Our objective was to perform a descriptive review of probiotic use in pediatrics, focused on Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. Certain probiotics have demonstrated to be effective in acute diarrhea and antibiotic-associated diarrhea. L. rhamnosus GG and Saccharomyces boulardii may shorten their duration and symptoms. L. reuteri DSM 17938 and L. rhamnosus GG were effective to manage infant colic. The use of this strain in infant formulas for cow's milk protein allergy may promote an earlier tolerance acquisition. In relation to the prevention of atopic dermatitis, the administration of L. rhamnosus GG during pregnancy reduced its development in the infant. The use of probiotics as adjuvants is a possibility to consider in current pediatric practice.

Spray drying of reconstituted skim milk fermented with GG: control of glass transition and stickiness.

The effects of glass transition and stickiness on the direct spray drying of reconstituted skim milk (RSM) fermented with GG (LGG) were investigated. The fermented RSM did not spray dry properly due to severe wall depositions; however, it dried well (comparable to the control; RSM with resuspended LGG cells) when skim milk powder (SMP) was added. Adding SMP significantly increased the glass transition and sticky point temperatures of spray-dried powder, ranging from 18.

Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) account for a large proportion of healthcare-associated infections. CAUTIs, caused by colonization of the catheter surface by uropathogens, are challenging to treat, especially when compounded by antibiotic resistance. One prophylactic strategy that could reduce pathogen colonization is bacterial interference, whereby the catheter surface is coated with non-pathogenic bacteria.

Background: With the growing interest in applying fermentation to seaweed biomasses, there is a need for fast and efficient selection of microbial strains that have the ability to 1) acidify quickly, 2) utilize seaweed constituents and c) exhibit some proteolytic activity. The present study aims to provide a fast methodology to screen large bacterial collections for potential applications in optimized seaweed fermentations, as well as investigate and assess the performance of a selected bacterial collection of the National Food Institute Culture Collection (NFICC) in seaweed fermentation. This approach is directed toward high-throughput (HT) methodologies, employing microwell assays for different phenotypical characteristics of lactic acid bacteria isolated from different sources.

Gossypol removal is crucial for the resourceful utilization of cottonseed meals in the food and feed industries. Herein, we investigated the comprehensive detoxification mechanism of a gossypol-tolerant strain of (WK331) newly isolated from the rumen. Biodegradation assays showed that WK331 removes over 80% of free gossypol, of which 50% was biodegraded and 30% was converted into bound gossypol.
