This study aimed to evaluate lactic acid bacteria isolates from Saanen goats' milk for probiotic attributes, thereby determining their potential as direct-fed microbials for goats. Isolates were identified using API 50CH system, 16S rDNA sequencing and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. All 17 isolates obtained were identified as Lactobacillus plantaru...

The aim of this study was to evaluate probiotic characteristics of Lactobacillus salivarius LS01 and Bifidobacterium breve BR03 alone and in combination and their immunomodulatory activity in asthmatic subjects. Subjects affected by allergic asthma were recruited. Initially, LS01 and BR03 were analyzed for their growth compatibility by a broth compatibility assay. To study the antimicrobial act...

Probiotic bacteria such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) play an important role in maintaining a healthy microbiota environment. Oral administration is the only way to deliver probiotic small intestine. Due harsh environment of gastrointestinal tract, proportion can reach target site, limiting their beneficial effects. Although many encapsulation techniques exist, loss bacterial cell viabili...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of nanoemulsion formulations for transdermal delivery of celecoxib (CXB). The in vitro skin permeation profile of optimized formulations was compared with CXB gel and nanoemulsion gel. Significant increase in the steady state flux (Jss), permeability coefficient (Kp) and enhancement ratio (Er) was observed in nanoemulsion formulation...

In this study an attempt was made to formulate cosmetic gel using Maranta arundinacea (arrowroot powder) Arrowroot contains flavonoids which is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, antibacterial properties from long time. It has earned a reputation as elegant, lightweight, all-natural absorbent powder with added skin-nourishing, reduce oiliness, anti-irritant and treating wounds historic...
