ABSTRACT Spray drying of skim milk was evaluated as a means of preservingLactobacillus paracasei NFBC 338 and Lactobacillus salivarius UCC 118, which are human-derived strains with probiotic potential. Our initial experiments revealed that NFBC 338 is considerably more heat resistant in 20% (wt/vol) skim milk than UCC 118 is; the comparable decimal reduction times were 11.1 and 1.1 min, respectively, at 59°C. An air outlet temperature of 80 to 85°C was optimal for spray drying; these conditions resulted in powders with moisture contents of 4.1 to 4.2% and viable counts of 3.2 × 109 CFU/g for N

9107 Background: Large numbers of cancer survivors have led to the need for FU care addressing lasting effects of BC and its treatment. We conducted a trial evaluating formats of FU care to determine if integration of remote electronic questionnaire FU provides for timely symptom management and more efficient care than routine clinic visits alone. Methods: Patients (pts) with ESBC were randomized to either usual care (UC, frequency of visits determined by oncology providers) with completion of an optional online health and symptom questionnaire (Q) before each clinic visit, or to SIS.NET FU ca

An IV Bu formulation would allow to target AUC and improve outcomes of HSCT.
