Bioactive protein and probiotic therapeutics: IFFLast 5 Years Research Landscape

Proteolytic enzymes and probiotic strains must maintain functional stability during processing to effectively target gastrointestinal health and skin barrier restoration.

What technical problems is IFF addressing in Bioactive protein and probiotic therapeutics?

Plant protein emulsion instability

(18)evidences

Oil-in-water emulsions in plant-based dairy alternatives suffer from phase separation and poor textural consistency.

Probiotic strain metabolic degradation

(45)evidences

Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains lose viability and therapeutic efficacy when exposed to environmental stressors in topical or oral formulations.

Enzymatic protein hydrolysis bitterness

(24)evidences

Incomplete cleavage of proline-rich sequences by endopeptidases results in bitter-tasting peptides and haze formation in food and feed applications.
