Abstract: The invention relates to a nutritional composition comprising at least one N-acetylated oligosaccharide, and at least one galacto-oligosaccharide, and at least one sialylated oligosaccharide. The composition optionally comprises a Bifidobacterium animalis spp. lactis probiotic, preferably CNCM-I-3446 probiotic. The composition treat ro reduces the risk, the severity and/or the occurrence of non-rotavirus associated diarrhoea. The composition also promotes a healthy intestinal flora and has beneficial long and short terms effects. The composition is in particular intended for infants between 0 and 12 months of age fed predominantly with infant formula.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a nutritional composition comprising at least one fucosylated oligosaccharide and at least one N-acetylated oligosaccharide for use in preventing and/or treating non-rotavirus diarrhea in infants or young children by acting on the dysbiosis of the microbiota preceding and/or following the non-rotavirus diarrhea. The composition can be an infant formula and is in particular intended for infants between 0 and 12 months of age fed predominantly with infant formula. It promotes a healthy intestinal flora and has beneficial short and long terms effects.

Abstract: This invention relates to Bifidobacterium breve CNCM I-3865, to a composition comprising Bifidobacterium breve CNCM I-3865 and to the use of Bifidobacterium breve CNCM I-3865 in the prevention or treatment of rotavirus diarrhoea.

It also relates to human or pet food products prepared thereof.

Abstract: This invention relates to a composition comprising a bacterial strain capable of boosting the systemic immune response, a bacterial strain capable of exerting bacteriostatic effects on pathogens associated with development of otitis media such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, untypeable Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis and a bacterial strain capable of exerting bacteriocidal effects on such pathogens. The invention further extends to the use of such a composition in the prevention or treatment of otitis media.

Abstract: The invention relates to an S thermophilus bacterium which is resistant to attack by at least one bacteriophage, a method of production of the bacterium and a composition which comprises the bacterium. The bacterium comprises a modification of the Sfi21 prophage or the bacterial genome which disrupts expression of a gene which is essential to a bacteriophage, but not essential to the bacteria.

Abstract: Novel microorganisms of the family Lactobacillaceae, particularly microorganisms of the gnus Lactobacillus, that are useful in preventing or treating diarrhoea are provided. The microorganism can be utilized for the preparation of an ingestable support and to a composition containing same. The microorganism Lactobacillus paracasei CNCM I-2116 can be included.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to the use of microorganisms belonging to the genus Bifidobacterium for preparing a carrier for the treatment or prophylaxis of diarrhea. The invention also relates to food or pharmaceutical compositions containing such microorganisms.

Abstract: Novel microorganisms of the family Lactobacillaceae and pharmaceutical compositions, food and methods of using same are provided. The microorganisms have the ability of preventing colonization of the intestine with pathogenic bacteria causing diarrhea and of preventing infection of intestinal epithelial cells by rotaviruses. The microorganisms can be used for the preparation of an ingestable support and to compositions containing same.
