THE FUTURE
THE CONTRIBUTION OF DEAD CELLS TO THE PROBIOTIC EFFECTS WE
KNOW SO FAR MAY BE MORE RELEVANT THAN WHAT WE THINK
When the amount of dead cells after freeze-drying is combined with the amount of dead cells after
storage (overfilling), a probiotic product may contain more dead than live cells
SOME STRAINS CAN BE EFFECTIVE AS PROBIOTIC
OR AS A POSTBIOTIC

CONCLUDING REMARKS
✓The definition is an extreme simplification (17 words) of a complex
concept, described in a paper of more than 9000 words.
✓Some leading countries (Canada, China, Hong Kong) started
considering the ISAPP definition to regulate the concept.
✓The unregarded contribution of dead cells in probiotic products may
be very promising to postbiotics.
✓Challenge: to develop validated tools to quantify postbiotics.
23
✓An ISAPP working Group on the topic will take place this year.
Thank you! Gracias!
