Definitions

  • Some embodiments of the present invention pertain to microcapsules containing probiotics, probiotics and prebiotics, and/or synbiotics. Some embodiments of the present invention pertain to methods of making microcapsules containing probiotics, probiotics and prebiotics, and/or synbiotics.
  • Probiotics are 'live microorganisms' or 'live microbial feed supplements' that offer health benefits to their host, and include primarily bacteria from the Lactobacillus and
  • Beneficial effects on the host are thought to include: promoting digestion and mineral absorption; maintaining intestinal microbial balance; improving immune system response and resistance to pathogens; preventing intestinal tract infection; reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, obesity and type-2 diabetes; regulating lipid levels and serum cholesterol; ameliorating lactose intolerance; as well as treating certain symptoms, such as inflammation, autoimmune responses, or allergies (Gibson & Roberfroid, 1995; Collins & Gibson, 1999; Shortt, 1999; Hooper et al., 2001; Pridmore et al., 2004; Sartor, 2004; Bielecka, 2007; Rastall, 2007; Sarkar, 2007).
  • Bifidobacteria are non-motile, non-spore forming and strictly anaerobic Gram-positive bacteria that grow at pH values between 4.5 and 8.5 (Scardovi, 1986; Rokka and Rantamaki, 2010). They are indigenous to the human intestine (Fuller, 1991) and play an important beneficial role in inhibiting proliferation of potentially harmful microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract (Hoover, 1993; Gibson & Roberfroid, 1995; Yaeshima, 1996; Holzapfel, Haberer, Snel, Schillinger, & Huis in't Veld, 1998; Alander et al., 1999).
  • Bifidobacteria species include Bifidobacteria adolescentis, Bifidobactertium animalis,
  • Lactobacilli are large, non-spore forming, Gram-positive rods, that have anaerobic or microaerophilic respiration. Gram-positive bacteria have a thick peptidoglycan layer as part of their cell wall whereas Gram-negative bacteria have a thin layer. Anaerobic bacteria will not grow in the presence of oxygen and therefore an atmosphere devoid of oxygen must be present in order for their growth to occur. Microaerophilic organisms are organisms that require a lower concentration of oxygen than that found in air.
  • Lactobacillus bacteria are microaerophilic and are commonly used as a starter culture in yogurt production and are the most commonly used probiotics in foods.
  • Exemplary Lactobacillus species used as probiotics include L. delbreuckii subspecies bulgaricus, L. acidophilus, L. casei, L. germentum, L. plantarum, L. brevis, L.
  • Prebiotics are compounds that support probiotic growth. Prebiotics act to increase the number and activity of beneficial bacteria which already colonize the colon.
  • Exemplary prebiotics include non-digestible carbohydrates such as: resistant starch (starch which is not hydrolysed in the small intestine), non-starch polysaccharides (hemicellulose, pectins, gums), and oligosaccharides (galactooligosaccharides, fructoligosaccharides, maltoligosaccharides), lactulose, inulin, and the like.
  • Synbiotics are nutritional supplements containing both probiotics and prebiotics. In some cases the combination of prebiotics and probiotics produces synergistic health benefits, hence the term “synbiotics” is used.
  • probiotic strains are sensitive to the harsh environmental conditions within foods, during processing and during transit through the gastrointestinal tract (Charteris, Kelly, Morelli, & Collins, 1998; Clark & Martin, 1994; Truelstrup Hansen, Allan- Wojtas, Jin, & Paulson, 2002).
  • GI lower gastrointestinal
  • encapsulation technology may be used to deliver therapeutic levels of both prebiotics and probiotics to the GI system, providing maximum health benefits of these agents.
  • Encapsulation technology involves encasing the sensitive core ingredients within a biopolymer shell, which can release its contents at controlled rates once triggered by an external sensor (e.g., temperature, pH, enzymes, etc.).
  • an external sensor e.g., temperature, pH, enzymes, etc.
  • alginate-based capsules seem to dominate.
  • Alginate is a linear heteropolysaccharide comprised of D-mannuronic and L-guluronic acids; the latter being highly- sensitive to divalent calcium ions resulting in the formation of strong egg box-like junction zones.
  • past alginate-probiotic capsules have been shown to be ineffective at adequately protecting probiotic bacteria subjected to simulated gastric juice.
  • small capsules ( ⁇ 100 ⁇ ) can be produced using an emulsification technique, allowing capsules to be incorporated into foods without affecting their sensory attributes (Cui, Goh, Kim, Choi, & Lee, 2000; Lee & Heo, 2000; Truelstrup Hansen et al., 2002; Chandramouli, Kailasapathy, Peiris, & Jones, 2004).
  • Plant proteins are becoming increasingly important to the food industry as a replacement for animal-derived proteins (e.g., gelatin and whey) for use as food and encapsulating ingredients.
  • Plant proteins represent an attractive alternative because of their low cost, renewability and functionality and as replacements for animal proteins based on consumer choices (e.g., vegans) and religious practices. They also are advantageous when used in combination with polysaccharides as wall materials, as they can be designed to have pH- or enzymatic triggers for controlled release purposes.
  • the application of plant proteins as encapsulating agents for probiotic delivery is currently very limited; however, this practice could be developed for use in non-dairy markets and products. Klemmer, Korber, Low, and Nickerson (2011) recently determined that pea protein isolate-alginate mixed capsules prepared by extrusion offered significant protection to B. adolescentis within simulated gastric juice (SGJ) over 2 h/37°C, and showed prolonged release within simulated intestinal fluids (SIF). However, capsule sizes were too large ( ⁇ 2 mm) for use as food supplements.
  • SGJ gastric juice
  • SIF simulated intestinal fluids
  • microcapsules having a smaller particle size acceptable for incorporation into food products that does not adversely affect the sensory attributes of the food product (i.e. less than about 100 ⁇ diameter).
  • Microcapsules having a smaller particle size have a greater surface area to volume ratio, leading to increased exposure to surface area and decreasing the survival of probiotics.
  • Polysaccharide-based microcapsules can be made, but provide poor survival rates for probiotics.
  • a microcapsule for protecting a probiotic and/or delivering a probiotic to an intestine of a subject comprises a biopolymer, a plant protein and a probiotic, and the microcapsule is prepared by crosslinking the biopolymer in an emulsion of the biopolymer, the plant protein, the probiotic, and an oil to encapsulate the probiotic.
  • a method of preparing a microcapsule includes combining a plant protein, a biopolymer and a probiotic to form an aqueous phase, adding an oil to the aqueous phase to form an emulsion, adding a crosslinker to crosslink the biopolymer, and separating the microcapsules from the oil phase of the emulsion.
  • the plant protein is chickpea protein isolate, pea protein isolate, and/or soy protein isolate.
  • the biopolymer is alginate, iota-carrageenan, and/or deacylated gellan gum.
  • the probiotic is from the Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium genera. In some embodiments, the probiotic is encapsulated together with a prebiotic.
  • the microcapsules have a diameter of between about 20 and about 100 micrometers. In some embodiments, the microcapsules are incorporated into a food product. In some embodiments, the food product is yogurt, fruit juice, a cereal product, or a dried food product. In some embodiments, the microcapsule provides delivery of the encapsulated probiotic to the intestine of a mammalian subject.
  • Figure 4 shows the survival of B. adolescentis entrapped in alginate microcapsules incorporating different plant-based proteins (pea, soy, faba, and lentil) as a function of time within synthetic gastric juice.
  • Figure 5 shows the release of B. adolescentis entrapped in alginate microcapsules incorporating different plant-based proteins (pea, soy, faba, and lentil) as a function of time within simulated intestinal fluid.

  • Gastric conditions are conditions similar to the conditions that would be experienced by a microcapsule in the stomach of a mammal. In some embodiments, the gastric conditions are similar to the conditions that would be experienced by a microcapsule in the stomach of a human. In some embodiments, "gastric conditions” that would be experienced in the stomach of a mammal means a pH of about 1.5-4.1 and a temperature of between about 36.5°C and 39.5°C.
