摘要:
The present invention is about a pre-fermented symbiotic matrix based on a cerealsuspension, preferably oat, containing encapsulated probiotics and prebiotics,the manufacturing process and the corresponding utilization. The present invention'sobject is the development of a cereal symbiotic matrix, preferably from oat,pre-fermented with encapsulated probiotics and free and/or encapsulated prebiotics,with the aim of complementing the actual functional food market and solving problemsinherent to the reduced shelf-life period of such foods due to loss of probioticviability to values below the minimum limits needed in order to promote biologicalactivity. Furthermore, the present invention's object is to improve thefermentative process conditions at different levels, namely fermentationtime reduction in order to reduce energy consumption during the process and therisk of contamination reduction as well as promote long term microbial stabilitymaintenance. The pre-fermented symbiotic matrix is designed, in particular,for those cases where intolerance and/or allergy to dairy products occur, yetit is further applicable to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and preferably foodindustries, including pet food.
