Composite Probiotic Powder for Gut Microbiota Regulation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current treatments for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are often symptomatic and lack a comprehensive, effective solution, with gut microbiota imbalance contributing to the disease, and existing probiotics show variable efficacy.
Innovation Solution
A composite probiotic lactic acid bacteria powder comprising Lactobacillus plantarum C2, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Bifidobacterium animalis, combined with prebiotics and fruit-vegetable powders, which provides high viable counts and improved gut microbiota regulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If symptomatic treatments are used for IBS, then medical resources are consumed and treatment costs increase, but the underlying gut microbiota imbalance remains unaddressed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by restoring gut microbiota balance before symptoms fully develop or recur. The probiotic composition is designed to pre-establish a healthy microbial environment, preventing dysbacteriosis from worsening and reducing the need for repeated symptomatic treatments, thereby addressing the root cause rather than just managing symptoms
2Reliability
If existing probiotics are used, then some gut microbiota regulation is achieved, but efficacy varies significantly depending on strains and contents
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs composite materials by formulating a multi-strain probiotic composition containing Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus casei, and Bifidobacterium animalis. This composite approach combines the benefits of different bacterial strains that can work synergistically to address various aspects of gut health, providing more consistent and reliable efficacy compared to single-strain probiotics while maintaining adaptability to different gut microbiota imbalances
3Ease of manufacture
If a single probiotic strain is used, then the product is simple to manufacture, but the ability to regulate diverse gut microbiota imbalance is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies merging by combining multiple probiotic strains (Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium animalis) into a single composite powder formulation. This merging of different bacterial species allows the product to address diverse gut microbiota imbalances more effectively while maintaining a unified, manufacturable powder form that can be easily administered
