Spray-drying is expected to be a cost-efficient way to produce probiotic powders. Indeed, a novelsimplified process was recently reported, using concentrated sweet whey (30 wt %) as a sole medium forboth growth and spray drying of probiotics. The feasibility of scaling up this process was validated in thepresent work with a semi industrial pilot scale spray dryer. A multi-stage mild-conditions drying process,coupling spray-drying with belt drying and fluid-bed drying, was also applied in this work, in which thefinal probiotic survival was improved to approximately 100% (>109 CFU g 1). The change of probioticviability in the powders was monitored during a 6-month storage, which indicated that storage temperatureand moisture content of powders play crucial roles in the stability of probiotic powders.Moreover, spray-drying afforded a strain-dependent enhancement of bacterial tolerance in simulatedintestinal fluid, in comparison with fresh cultures
