Target Introduction
Introduction
Bifidobacterium is Gram-positive, heterofermentative, anaerobic bacteria with a distinctive bifid; i.e. Y shape after which they are named. They wre originally isolated from the faeces of breast-fed infants, members of the genus Bifidobacterium are commonly found in the GI tract of mammals. In humans, Bifidobacterium resides within the GI tract, from birth to old age. Disturbances in the microbiota are linked to an ever-growing number of immune-linked disease states including IBD, atopic allergy, arthritis, and obesity. Therefore, there is a significant interest in treating these diseases through microbial or "probiotic" supplementation of patients, including Bifidobacterium. Data from mouse models and clinical trials indicate that Bifidobacterium may have beneficial effects for treating and preventing immune-linked diseases, including gut-associated and systemic conditions. Bifidobacterium have been commercially exploited as probiotic agents due to their associated health benefits and GRAS.

FAQs Customer Reviews Related Products
What is the recommended dosage for Bifidobacterium lactis in research?
The dosage can vary depending on the study, but commonly, it ranges from 1 to 10 billion CFUs per day. The exact dosage should be determined based on the specific objectives of the research and the target population.
What are the optimal growth conditions for Bifidobacterium lactis?
Bifidobacterium lactis thrives under anaerobic conditions at a temperature range of 37°C. The pH of the growth medium should be maintained around 6.5 to optimize bacterial proliferation and metabolic activity.
What are the stability considerations for Bifidobacterium lactis in different formulations?
Bifidobacterium lactis is stable in various formulations, including dairy products and dietary supplements. Encapsulation techniques can enhance its stability by protecting the bacteria from environmental stresses during processing and storage.
How should Bifidobacterium lactis cultures be prepared for experimental use?
Bifidobacterium lactis cultures should be prepared using freshly prepared, pre-reduced media under anaerobic conditions. The media should be devoid of oxygen to maintain the viability of the bacteria.
What are the common challenges in culturing Bifidobacterium lactis?
Common challenges include maintaining anaerobic conditions, preventing contamination, and ensuring consistent growth. Using high-quality, pre-reduced media and strict anaerobic techniques can help mitigate these challenges.
