Abstract
The production of functional foods containing prebiotic ingredients is an area of particular interest and a very promising market with the potential to dominate the food industry. This study aims to explore the potential of starch-based prebiotic tapioca and skim milk, as low-cost and easily accessible food sources and as natural and "clean label" food ingredients on the probiotic activities of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum). The results show that concomitant use of the modified tapioca starch and skim milk promotes the antibacterial and anti-cancer properties of L. plantarum post-fermentation media pointing out how the functionality of probiotic products can be regulated by growth supplements.
