The effect of protective ingredients on the survival of immobilized cells of Streptococcus thermophilus to air and freeze-drying

Streptococcus thermophilus cultures were grown either on trehalose or lactose, immobilized in alginate beads, dipped in various protective solutions and dried by either convection air-drying (CAD) or freeze-drying (FD). Immobilized cultures dipped in the 0.1% peptone solution did not show good survi...
