Understanding the viability of ingested probiotics within the gastrointestinal tract is essential for evaluating their efficacy and deciphering their mechanisms of action. Detecting Bifidobacterium longum subspecies longum BB536 is particularly challenging owing to its indistinguishability from the naturally abundant B. longum species in the human gut.

This study investigated the probiotic potential of fermented beverages derived from (). Three different beverages were prepared by fermenting water extract with A6-3 ( A6-3), A27-1 ( A27-1), or both for 48 h. The results demonstrated that bioactive compounds from promoted the growth of these two probiotics and preserved their viability for at least 28 days at 4 °C.

The present study evaluates the effects of açai juice containing gluco-oligosaccharides and dextran, fermented by NRRL B-41408 (synbiotic juice), on the human fecal microbiota. The juice is subjected to simulated digestion and fecal fermentation after production and 42 days of refrigerated storage. High throughput 16S rRNA sequencing and HPLC are used to identify the bacterial cells and metabolites.

The effect of exotic fruit pulp (araçá, cagaita, cambuci, grumixama, blueberry, and uvaia) on probiotic viability during storage and after gastrointestinal tract (GIT) simulation, in vitro biological activity, total phenolics (TPC) and flavonoids content, and the production of metabolic products of microbial in probiotic yogurt were investigated. During the storage period (28 days), probiotic strain populations remained high (above 6 log CFU/g), while after the GTI simulation, L. acidophilus and B.
