Resumen:
Lactobacillus casei Nad, L. acidophilus A9 and L. paracasei A13 were spray-dried in 20% (w/v) skim milk and submitted to a simulated gastrointestinal digestion. IgA-producing cells were enumerated in the small intestine lamina propria after lactobacilli administration to mice. Spray drying significantly enhanced the resistance of L. paracasei A13 and L. casei Nad to a simulated gastrointestinal digestion. Also, a significant higher number of IgA-producing cells was induced by spray-dried cultures compared to fresh cultures. Spray drying is a suitable technological process for the development of probiotic cultures in skim milk with increased functionality for certain strains.
