Abstrakt: The intake of probiotics offers various health benefits; however, their efficacy depends on the maintenance of viability during industrial processing and digestion. Probiotic viability can be compromised during encapsulation, freeze-drying, storage, and digestion, necessitating multiple coatings. This complicates production and raises costs. In this study, CaCO 3 -single-coated probiotics (CSCPs) were prepared, an approach rarely reported before. Through instrumental analyses, the encapsulation of probiotics within CaCO 3 was confirmed, ensuring their high viability. This proposed technology effectively preserves the viability of probiotics during the encapsulation and freeze-drying processes, resulting in minimal cell loss. Moreover, CSCPs demonstrated exceptional viability performance under simulated gastric and intestinal conditions. Notably, 100% of these microorganisms reached the intestines, delivering over 10 billion CFUs of probiotics in a viable state. This study highlights the potential of CSCPs as a feasible solution for overcoming probiotic encapsulation challenges and optimizing therapeutic benefits.
