Abstract
Two Bifidobacterium strains contained in two different fermented milks behave very differently when exposed to an in vitro simulated gastric environment. One strain survives very well during at least 90 min (greater than 10(7)/g), but the second strain studied is much less resistant. These in vitro results, with slight differences, were confirmed by an in vivo study in humans. The assessment of the gastric emptying rate of these products allows an estimation of the amount of Bifidobacterium that may pass into the small intestine.Entities:
