Sabinsa, East Windsor, NJ, has announced that LactoSpore has been selected by Wellspring Industry, Inc., Fullerton, CA, to provide the beneficial probiotic ingredient for their Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt. LactoSpore is the trade name for Sabinsa’s probiotic Bacillus coagulans, formerly known as Lactobacillus sporogenes. LactoSpore withstands the acidic environment of the stomach and then germinates and proliferates in the GI tract within a few hours. Due to its spore-forming nature, LactoSpore is resistant to most chemical and physical conditions (e.g., heat and acid) and survives manufacturing, shipping and storage with no loss of viable count. The probiotic does not require refrigeration, is room-temperature stable, and is self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by an independent panel of experts.
