A research group from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, recently published a paper called “Infection and Immunity,” detailing the unique properties of the oral cavity probiotic BLIS K12, from BLIS Technologies Ltd. Frutarom has exclusive distribution rights to this product.
Results published in American Society of Microbiology indicate BLIS K12 exhibits a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect directly related to its interaction and colonization with its host. The study also suggests that BLIS K12 can switch on the genes in the epithelial tissue that are responsible for cellular rebuilding and repair, especially after a cell has been damaged by a pathogen.
Just prior to this publication, another study appeared in the European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, suggesting that BLIS K12 could exert a long-term protective effect upon the upper respiratory tract if subjects sucked on a series of BLIS K12 lozenges immediately after a course of antibiotics. The study suggested that BLIS K12 might have the potential for unique application of protection against ear infections in children. For further information: www.frutarom.com
