Abstract: Selection of probiotic strains belonging to the genus Bifidobacterium and to a symbiotic composition containing the same for use of feeding infants, is described.

Abstract: Selected bacterial strains belonging to the genus Bifidobacterium for use in the treatment of hypercholesterolaemia are described. In particular, a food composition or supplement product or medical device or pharmaceutical composition has said bacterial strains in association with sterols or phytosterols and/or stanols or phytostanols and/or glucomannan and/or konjac gum and/or prebiotic fibres and/or fermented red rice and/or betaglucans from oats, oat bran, barley, barley bran and/or Aloe arborescens gel in lyophilized form.

Abstract: A selection of strains of lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria of human intestinal origin capable of metabolizing oxalates is described. Moreover, a food composition or supplement product or pharmaceutical composition containing said bacterial strains is also described.

Abstract: A multilayer microencapsulated lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria, preferably bacteria with probiotic activity, and the use thereof to prepare a food product, supplement product, medical device or pharmaceutical composition or water- and/or fruit-based beverage are described. A process for preparing multilayer microencapsulated lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria, preferably bacteria with probiotic activity is described. A food product is described selected from water, water- and/or fruit-based beverages, milk, fresh whole milk, partially skimmed milk, powdered milk, cheese, fresh cheese, aged cheese, grated cheese, butter, margarine, yogurt, cream, milk- and chocolate-based custards, custards for sweets, jams and oily suspensions having bacteria, preferably multilayer microencapsulated lactic bacteria and bifidobacteria with probiotic activity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a selected strain of Lactobacillus pentosus for use as a medication for the preventive or curative treatment of infections due to Gram-negative bacteria, preferably enterococci, coliforms and E. coli.

Abstract: The present invention relates to probiotic bacteria strains having a high anti-inflammatory activity. The present invention relates to bacteria strains as strongly inducers of Interleukin-10 (IL-10) production. In particular, the present invention relates to the anti-inflammatory activity shown by said bacteria strains due to its enhancement of IL-10 production in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, with on the other hand a low capability to stimulate the production of the pro-inflammatory Il-12, thus leading to a high IL-10/IL-12 ratio. Further, the present invention relates to the use of at least one bacterium strain for the preparation of a composition for the prevention or treatment of the inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Finally, the present invention relates to food products, such as probiotic dietary supplements containing at least one probiotic bacterium strain, as an active ingredient.
