Description
Summary:<em>The first year of child’s life is the most important and intensive stage in formation of stable intestinal microbiocenosis. Main factors resulting in stability are primary colonization, tolerance, barrier function of epithelium, main protective systems of gastrointestinal tract, breast milk, and probiotics. The creation or restoration of microbiocenosis is achieved by different techniques of microbal population management: breast feeding, adopted milk mixtures fortified with probiotics in terms of lack or absence of breast milk. Beneficial effects of probiotics are strain-specific. Detailed scientific dossier of a strain Lactobacillus GG (АТСС 53103, LGG) is described. The strain is included in sour-milk products «TYOMA» for children 6 months and older.</em><br /><strong><em>Key words: children, colonization, intestinal flora, micro biocenosis, breast milk, probiotic bacteria, food.</em></strong><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><em><em>(Voprosy sovremennoi pediatrii — Current Pediatrics. </em></em></em><em><em><em>2011; 10 (4): 62–69)</em></em></em></span>
