Summary

The survival of B. bifidum 1900 and 1901, B. adolescentis 1920, B. breve 1930, B. longum 20097 and B. thermophilum 20210 was adversely affected in presence of acid, and the viability of these strains was even more affected in presence of acid and hydrogen peroxide, indicating a synergistic inhibition of bifidobacteria by acid and hydrogen peroxyde. However, B. infantis 1912, B. longum 1941 and B. pseudolongum 20099 suvived well in presence of acid and hydrogen peroxide, suggesting that these strains can be used as dietary adjuncts in fermented dairy foods.
