13. Summary Two scientific publications in peer review journals Lead to develop the probiotic product lines to pet and farm animal business Develop international business partnerships in Japan, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Brazil

15. 37C P. acidilactici 65C* Effects of different temperature on growth of P. acidilactici and E. faecium in vitro E. faecium * Treated bacteria at 65C for 3 hrs, plated onto MRS plate,and incubated at 37C overnight

16. Characteristics of P. acidilactici Natural existence in animals and humans Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by FDA Enhanced immune responses Less sensitive to exposure of oxygen than Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. More resistant to heat than Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. More resistant to acidic environment

17. Trends Emerging Antibiotics resistant SuperBugs -Abandon Antibiotics -Alternative Medicines Demanding Nutracetutical products -Healthy food -Nutrition supplement -Therapeutical effects Requiring Green (organic) foods -Antibiotics free -Growth hormone free -Pesticide free
