Abstract

Intoduction: Probiotic products have been used worldwide in the last decades. They are significantly gaining popularity and their consumption is associated with increasing levels of health-consciousness. Probiotics can be defined as microbial cells that have a beneficial effect on the health and wellbeing of the host. In this sense different probiotic products have appeared on the market with different formulations and applications. Bread is the major type of bakery products and a staple food in most part of the world. Despite attempts to develop functional breads containing viable microorganisms, this has not been fully developed yet because of the high temperature during baking process. Viability of probiotic bacteria in the product at the point of consumption is an important consideration for their efficacy, as they have to survive during the processing and shelf life of food. Lactobacillus reuteri which naturally occurs in the human intestine possess probiotic properties with good colonization potential. The main purpose of probiotic encapsulation is to protect cells against an unfavorable environment, include high processing temperatures and storage. The fluid bed encapsulation process consists of spraying a coating solution into a fluidized bed of solid particles. After several cycles of wetting–drying, a continuous film is formed. The main parameters affecting the process are flow-rate and pressure of the spraying liquid, composition and rheology of the coating solution, flow-rate and temperature of the fluidizing air. Double microencapsulation for probiotics by air-suspension fluidized-bed coating is a good alternative method to achieve greater resistance to high temperatures during bread baking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival of Lactobacillus reuteri that had been double layered using chitosan, calcium chloride and Arabic gum for microencapsulation and which had been exposed to bread baking conditions.

Materials and Methods: Pure freeze-dried Lactobacillus reuteri PT-1655 were obtained from Persian Type Culture Collection (Tehran, Iran) and were activated by inoculation in the MRS broth at 37°C for 36-48 h. The air-suspension process was performed in a Wurster coater system with a bottom spraying atomizer. In various pretests, the fluidization pressure, the atomization pressure and the spraying rate of the microencapsulation process were varied to examine their influence on process conditions, especially on the particle development. In this study, chitosan, calcium chloride and Arabic gum at concentrations (0.5, 1 and 1.5% w/v), 5% w/v and (1.5, 3 and 6% w/v) were used as second layer in double microencapsulation, respectively. Heat resistance of unencapsulated and double encapsulated microorganisms was determined by placing in an oven which was preheated to 80°C for 15 and 30 minutes. The prepared dough after adding of unencapsulated and double encapsulated bacteria was shaped into loaves of 50 g each, placed in aluminum pans, and baked in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20 min and 70 – 80% relative humidity and then cooled at room temperature. The temperature during baking process was checked by putting a thermocouple at the crumb center. The viability of bacteria at controlled conditions was measured after 1 and 24 h after baking process. Experimental data have been represented as the mean with standard deviation (SD) of different independent determinations. The significance of differences was evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA). Differences were considered statistically significant at p
