Enhancing Probiotic Performance in Food Matrices: From Strain Selection to Bioengineering
ABSTRACT Probiotics are central to functional food innovation, but their application is limited by viability loss during processing, storage, and gastrointestinal (GI) transit. A key insight is that viability and functionality are distinct attributes; maintaining high cell counts does not guarantee that probiotics retain their beneficial properties ...

Selection of Wheat Germ Drying Methods Using Multi‐Criteria Decision‐Making Techniques
The parameters for the analysis of dried wheat germ were weighted using the MEREC method, with the most critical criterion being antioxidant capacity. The COBRA method was employed to evaluate a total of 15 alternatives. The most effective drying method for wheat germ was determined to be the combination of vacuum pre‐drying and microwave finish‐drying
