LactoSpore® is the original room‐temperature stable Probiotic introduced by Sabinsa over 10 years ago. As Lakshmi
Prakash, Ph.D., VP of Innovation and Business Development for Sabinsa noted, “Lactospore is particularly valued by our
customers for its convenient storage and handling attributes. The fact that this clinically validated probiotic culture does
not need refrigeration to help retain its healthful properties is attractive to formulators and consumers alike”. Shaheen
Majeed, Marketing Director, added, “Achieving GRAS status highlights our ongoing commitment to ensuring regulatory
compliance for our customers, as well as our dedication to developing highly functional and safe ingredients that become
cornerstones of our customer’s products.”
LacotSpore®, sp. Bacillus coagulans, formerly known as Lactobacillus sporogenes is a shelf stable (at room temperature)
probiotic, with clinically documented efficacy in supporting health and wellness. It was originally isolated from a food
source (green malt) in Japan. Being in sporulated form, the culture survives and proliferates in the gastrointestinal
environment unlike vegetative cells that may be destroyed under these conditions. The culture produces only the
beneficial L‐(+) form of lactic acid in the gastrointestinal tract.
Probiotics are now clinically proven to have a number of health benefits including usefulness in irritable bowel
syndrome, allergic conditions, skin health maintenance, and dental health maintenance, in supporting healthy blood
pressure levels, immune functions and liver functions pain / inflammation relief support, in the management of vaginal
infections, and in supporting cardiovascular health and wellness. The category is growing in popularity amid increased
consumer understanding and acceptance of the benefits of probiotics.
