The Science: How it Works
Innovating in the delivery of health ingredients with micro-encapsulation technology
Patented Process
AnaBio uses a patented process to apply a protein based coating to protect probiotics from heat during processing and insulate them from moisture preventing their growth during product storage.

- Protect probiotics from heat during processing
- Insulate them from moisture preventing their growth during product storage.
Delivering Health Benefits
When consumed, the protein based coat is broken down by the proteases naturally present in the intestine and the live probiotics are released to colonise the small intestine and deliver their health benefit.
Innovate. Encapsulate. Evolve.
Flow Cytometry Measurement of Encapsulated Probiotics
Flow cytometry (ISO 19344) provides a fast, accurate and reliable DNA based method for enumerating encapsulated probiotics
Timed Protein Breakdown
The speed of protein breakdown and bioactive release can be controlled by changing the size and strength of the micro-particle and protein coating used.
Different Proteins
Different proteins also display different release profiles as the digestion kinetic of each protein is quite unique based on its amino acid composition.
Patent Protected
Our technologies are protected by more than 12 patent families. These patents cover areas including probiotics, oils, macronutrients, vitamins, minerals and botanicals.
