R. Fuller 1.1 DEVELOPMENT OF COMMERCIAL PREPARATIONS The history of
the probiotic effect has been well documented many times previously
(see e.g. Bibel, 1982; Fuller, 1992). The consumption of fermented
milks dates from pre-biblical times but the probiotic concept was
born at the end of the last century with the work of Metchnikoff at
the Pasteur Institute in Paris. In the century that has elapsed
since Metchnikoff's work, the probiotic concept has been accepted
by scientists and consumers throughout the world. Attempts to
refine the practice from the use of traditional soured milks to
preparations containing specific micro organisms have occupied the
thoughts and endeavours of scientists in many different countries.
But, in spite of the large amount of effort expended in attempting
to explain and define the effect, it has to be admitted that little
is known of the way in which probiotics operate. There are likely
to be several different mechanisms because it seems highly
improbable that a mode of action that explains resistance to
microbial infection will also hold true for improved milk
production or alleviation of lactose malabsorption."
