1.4.1. Safety Aspects of Probiotics Today‚ there are evidences that probiotic strains used as commercial bacteria are safe to use in applications. The safety of the probiotic products is appraised with the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics and the statistics of used microorganisms (Çakır 2003). Safety aspects of probiotic bacteria include the following requirements. 1. Strains for human use are preferred to be human origin. 2. They are isolated from healthy human gastrointestinal tract. 3

As part of their research Dr. Boer‚ Buel‚ and Horst(2012) explained‚ what is this “ Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophin involved in several processes‚ including survival‚ apoptosis‚ differentiation‚ and maturation of neurons”(p.118).

formation of these extra-neuronal plaques. In addition‚ copper ions within beta amyloid plaques have been linked to the production of reactive oxygen species. Ultimately‚ this oxidative stress leads to increased neurotoxicity‚ and finally cell apoptosis. Interestingly‚ the compounds in the current study designed to chelate with copper ions have been

T-cells‚ suppressor T-cells‚ and memory cells. By using cytotoxic T-cell‚ the third response is able to detect and recognize antigens on the surface of infected cell. The cytotoxic T-cells then bind to the infected cells secrete cytotoxins that induce apoptosis in the infected cell and perforins that cause perforations in the infected cells. When both of these mechanisms are through they will help destroy pathogens in the infected body. This diagram will help with the visualization of these mechanism and

oxygen radicals (Geiger 95). Free radicals are responsible for aging and tissue damage. These free radical molecules are very unbalanced‚ so they look to bond with other molecules (Panglossi 2). Free radicals are harmful‚ causing cell damage or apoptosis which is cell death. Oxidation reactions can produce free radicals‚ free radicals can multiply through a chain reactions resulting in the release of thousands of these cellular oxidants. When the chain reactions starts it spreads to cells throughout
