Patent number: 11911422Abstract: A Bifidobacterium lactis BL-99 strain capable of enhancing immunity and the use thereof, which belongs to the technical field of microorganisms, is described. The Bifidobacterium lactis BL-99 provided by the present invention is deposited in China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center CGMCC on Apr. 26, 2018 with the deposit number CGMCC No. 15650. The bacteria have gastric acid resistance and intestinal fluid resistance, can significantly promote the growth of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, significantly increase antibody-producing cells and half hemolysis value HC50, activate NK cell activity, and can be used to prepare foods for immunity enhancement. It also has the effects in preventing osteoporosis, increasing blood calcium and/or phosphorus ions, which has a wide range of application prospects.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wei-Hsien Liu, Wei-Lian Hung, Ting Sun, Wen Zhao, Ignatius Man-Yau Szeto

Patent number: 11666613Abstract: A new use of Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei K56 capable of regulating the gastrointestinal flora balance is described. The deposit number of the Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei is DSM27447. This strain alone has the ability to significantly promote the growth of intestinal Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, suppress Desulfovibrio and/or Enterobacteria in the intestine, suppress Helicobacter and/or Escherichia-Shigella, and can endure a simulated in vitro gastrointestinal fluid stress environment. Experiments in mice show that this strain has no acute oral toxicity, no antibiotic resistance, and may be safely used in food processing.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2020Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wei-Hsien Liu, Wei-Lian Hung, Ting Sun, Wen Zhao, Ignatius Man-Yau Szeto
