Funded Activity Summary

Design a Targeted Delivery System for Probiotics. The project aims to improve the effectiveness of probiotics by developing a targeted delivery system to the colon. This interdisciplinary research will generate new knowledge in the field of microbiota and develop new delivery systems for live microorganisms and other active compounds. Expected outcomes include increased understanding of the factors affecting the viability of probiotics during storage and passage through the gastro-intestinal tract, the establishment of probiotics into gut flora, and how this incorporation affects the dynamics of gut microbiota. The new technology can be utilised across a wide range of therapeutics that target the colon to promote the well-being of our society through commercialisation by industry partner.
