Aimed at students, researchers, nutritionists, and developers in
food technology, this research text addresses the nascent field of
metabiotics. Metabiotics are products based on components of cells,
metabolites, and signaling molecules released by probiotic strains,
engineered to optimize host-specific physiological functions in a
way that traditional probiotics cannot. This book examines the
history, processes, design, classifications, and functions of
metabiotics. It includes an overview of the composition and
function of the gut microbiota, and discusses development of
target-specific metabiotics. Further coverage includes comparisons
to traditional probiotics, as well as probiotic safety and
side-effects. Metabiotics: Present State, Challenges and
Perspectives provides a complete history and understanding of this
new field, the next phase of the probiotic industry.
