Type of article: Article

Summary

The success of the cryoprotectants was estimated in terms of the number of surviving organisms after lyophilization. Bifidobacterium breve A71 and Bifidobacterium bifidum BbTD freeze-dried in media A (gelatine and skim milk) and B (gelatine and glycerol) showed high survival rates. Bifidobacterium breve A71 showed a greater percentage survival in combination with medium B than with medium A. These results could be utilized in the manufacture of Bifidobacterium breve A71 as a starter in the dairy industry because it is a human isolate which, except for acidification, has a probiotic activity.
