• Probiotics and their fermented food products are beneficial for health (2006, background): “Epidemiological data on the safety of dairy products (Reddy et al. 1973; Saavedra et al. 1994; Rolfe 2000) and a thorough review of the safety data on probiotics (Ouwehand et al. 2002) suggests no evidence of probiotics being involved with human infections.”
• Ecological Role of Lactobacilli in the Gastrointestinal Tract: Implications for Fundamental and Biomedical Research (2008, background): “However, although most probiotic strains originate from human gut or fecal samples, they show a poor persistence after administration is stopped (66).”
• Microbial ecology of the gastrointestinal tract of fish and the potential application of probiotics and prebiotics in finfish aquaculture (2009, background): “Today, probiotics are quite common place in health promoting “functional foods” for humans, and natural and ecological alternative of AGP in animal production (Ouwehand et al. 2002; Sullivan and Nord 2002; Senok et al. 2005; Denev 2008).”
• Probiotics in aquaculture: The need, principles and mechanisms of action and screening processes (2008, background): “Today probiotics are quite commonplace in health promoting “functional foods” for humans, as well as therapeutic, prophylactic and growth supplements in animal production and human health (Mombelli and Gismondo, 2000; Ouwehand et al., 2002; Sullivan and Nord, 2002; Senok et al., 2005).”
• Bifidobacteria and Their Role as Members of the Human Gut Microbiota (2016, background): “Fifteen out of the 20 patients remained in remission throughout the trial, suggesting that administration of this bacterial cocktail is beneficial in maintaining remission from ulcerative colitis (Venturi et al., 1999; Gionchetti et al., 2000).”
• Encapsulation Technology to Protect Probiotic Bacteria (2012, background): “The mechanisms of action of probiotic bacteria are thought to result from modification of the composition of the endogenous intestinal microbiota and its metabolic activity, prevention of overgrowth and colonization of pathogens and stimulation of the immune system [43].”
• Monostrain, multistrain and multispecies probiotics--A comparison of functionality and efficacy. (2004, background): “There is ample evidence from laboratory experiments that ingestion of probiotic microbes, especially lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria, alleviates or prevents various disorders, such as lactose intolerance, rotavirus diarrhoea and atopy ( Ouwehand et al., 2002a ).”
• The reproductive biology and the histological and ultrastructural characteristics in ovaries of the female gadidae fish Merluccius merluccius from the Egyptian Mediterranean water (2010, background): “been attributed to probiotics: they adhere to host epithelial tissue; they are acid resistant and bile tolerant; they are safe, non-pathogenic and non-carcinogenic; they cause improvement of the intestinal microflora; they have a cholesterol lowering, immunostimulating and allergy lowering effect; s”
