The aim of this study was to improve the viability of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) during extended storage of 1 year and mechanical characteristics of the calcium alginate beads with co-encapsulation of prebiotics and chitosan coating and subsequent freeze drying. The results revealed that the addition of trehalose to alginate matrix effectively protects the LAB cells during freeze drying, i.e., the survival rate has increased up to more than 92.5 %. Chitosan coating reinforced Ca-alginate beads, therefore the sphericity and mechanical strength of the beads improved. The findings also showed that bacteria encapsulation with the prebiotics resulted in more cells stability during the prolonged storage of 1 year and were 4.82 ± 0.06 log CFU g−1 in the lyophilized alginate-trehalose beads for Lactobacillus plantarum and 5.64 ± 0.08 log CFU g−1 in the lyophilized alginate-trehalose-inulin beads for Lactobacillus reuteri. No survival, however, was noted for the LAB cells in wet capsules after the same period. This study demonstrated that prebiotics had a significant impact on the viability of cells during freeze drying and storage. What is more, physical properties of the alginate beads were enhanced by coating beads with the chitosan. |
