PROBLEM STATEMENT
To produce a freeze-dried synbiotic supplement with
optimal cell viability, consisting of Lactobacillus plantarum and
enzyme-treated purple rice bran fiber, and evaluate its
maintained viability during variant storage conditions.

 Design Tools
 Budget
 Summary
PREBIOTICS
 Non-digestible oligosaccharides
 In Intestines:
 Stimulates the growth and activity of
healthy bacterial flora
 Carbon and energy source for flora
 In vivo: protective fiber matrix
increases stability and viability of
probiotics when freeze-dried
PROBIOTICS
 Live microorganisms found in
 Intestines
 Dairy products
 Provides beneficial digestive health
 Prevents the growth of harmful bacteria
 Maintains healthy balance for homeostasis
DESIGN CONSTRAINTS
 Time
 Money
 Access to equipment
 Minimum effective dose of Synbiotic (CFU/g)
 IACUC (Institutional Animal Care and Use
Committee)
 Process of Approval in progress: #13-100
MEASUREABLE OBJECTIVES
Synbiotic Synthesis
 74 % Dietary fiber in Enzyme-treated Rice Fiber
 Recover 8.78 +/- 0.10 log CFU L. plantarum per mL of synbiotic
after growth
 Maintained viability of 106 CFU/g after 30 days of storage
 Model doubling time of probiotic during growth, and reduction
rate during storage

CONCEPT EVALUATION & SELECTION
PREBIOTIC SOURCE: ENZYME-TREATED PURPLE RICE FIBER
 Blanca Isabel Purple Rice
 Bran is by-product of Rice
 Locally grown and milled
 High Antioxidant content
 Cryoprotectant
 Enzyme-Treatment
 Purifies Bran from 24% to 74% Dietary
Fiber
ENZYME-TREATMENT PROCESS
ENZYME ADDITION
• α-Amylase

CONCEPT EVALUATION & SELECTION
PROBIOTIC SOURCE: L. PLANTARUM
 Nutrition Requirements and Growth Rate
 Tolerate pH of stomach
GROWTH OF PROBIOTIC ON FIBER
 Better survives
harsh condition of
stomach
 Scanning Electron
Microscopy (SEM) to
confirm growth
INOCULATION OF L. PLANTARUM
ADHERENCE AND GROWTH RATE
VIABILITY
MEASURING CFU/ML
 Serial Dilutions
 Triplicate Plating
 Accept 30-300 cell plate
 Before/During/After
Multiple Stages
METHOD OF PRESERVATION
FREEZE DRYING
 Decreases surrounding pressure until frozen water sublimates
 Fiber serves as cryoprotectant for probiotic
 Less cell damage and cell reduction
 Improves stability and viability during storage
 Prolongs shelf-life
 Air blast freezer can be used for a variety of irregular shapes
 Particularly small sizes
FREEZE-DRYING PROCESS
AIR-BLAST FREEZER
TESTING PLANS
 Modeling
 Growth of Bacteria on Fiber
 Viability during Storage over One
Month
 Storage
 To determine the optimal
temperature necessary to keep
our supplement viable
 Animal Study
 To test effectiveness of synbiotic in
intestinal environment for future
marketability
 Ulcerative Colitis Model
 Form of IBD
 Past studies of treating Colitis
with probiotics
MODELING
 Bacteria grown on Fiber
Doubling Time
 Bacteria added to Fiber
 Exponential Increase
 Bacteria separate from Fiber
 𝑋 = 𝑋0 𝑒 𝜇𝑡
 X = cell concentration
 X0 = initial cell concentration
 μ = specific growth rate, units of
time-1
 t = time
 Concentration at t = td is 2X0
 td = doubling time
 2 = 𝑒 𝜇𝑡
 𝑡𝑑 =

𝜇
STORAGE
Storage Conditions
 At Room Temperature (25°C) vs. Refrigerator (4°C)
 Storage duration for one month
 Bi weekly viability count (CFU/mL)
ANIMAL STUDY
 Foundational Study
 Feed supplemented diets
 Induce Colitis with DSS
 Post-mortem evaluations
 Test groups based on respective
supplemental diets
 Control (no supplement)
 Prebiotic supplement only (ERF)
 Probiotic supplement only
(L. plantarum)
 Synbiotic supplement
(ERF + L. plantarum)
 Process of Approval in progress
ANIMAL STUDY
 Terminal Measurements after Dissection
 Weight and length of colon to analyze the effects of inflammation
 Cecal sample

Microbiota characterization determined by RT-qPCR

Short Chain Fatty Acid content
 Elisa kit for Cytokine analysis [IL-6 and TNF-α]
 H&E stain of colonic mucosal tissue to visually assess mucosal damage
 Measurable Objectives (Relative to the Control)
 Longer colon length
 Decreased cytokine levels
 Lower mucosal damage score
 Abundance of microbial strains
