Abstract
- The term probiotic refers to live microorganisms that survive passage through the gastrointestinal tract and have beneficial effects on the host. Many strains of probiotic microorganisms have been shown to inhibit growth and metabolic activity as well as the adhesion to intestinal cells of enteropathogenic bacteria, to modulate the gut microbiota and to have immunostimulatory or regulatory properties. The use of probiotic microorganisms for the prevention and the treatment of Antibiotic Associated Diarrhea is an obvious measure and perhaps the most usual application of probiotics. This overview summarizes the most commonly used probiotic microorganisms for DAA and IBD.
