Enhancing Amino Acid Absorption with L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201, L. plantarum IDCC 3501, and L. casei IDCC 3451

Updated: Jan 30

At ILDONG Bioscience, we're dedicated to unlocking the potential of probiotics to revolutionize health and nutrition. Our recent research has brought to light the remarkable abilities of three specific probiotic strains in enhancing amino acid absorption: L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201, L. plantarum IDCC 3501, and L. casei IDCC 3451. These strains aren't just another addition to our probiotic range; they represent our commitment to advancing health through innovative, science-backed solutions.



The Role of Probiotics in Nutrition

Probiotics, known for their benefits in digestive health and immune function, also play a crucial role in nutrition, particularly in the absorption of essential nutrients like amino acids, the building blocks of proteins.


A Unified Mechanism: Enhancing Amino Acid Absorption

Our groundbreaking research has shown that L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201, L. plantarum IDCC 3501, and L. casei IDCC 3451 share a similar mechanism in enhancing amino acid absorption. This mechanism involves a two-fold action:


  1. Proteolytic Activity: Three strains were observed to actively secrete proteases that hydrolyze milk proteins. This proteolytic activity is crucial for breaking down proteins into amino acids, making them more available for absorption.

  2. Modulation of Gut Microbiota: The strain influences the composition and function of gut microbiota. This modulation is essential for creating a favorable environment for nutrient breakdown and absorption.

  3. Upregulation of Amino Acid Transporters: The probiotic increases the expression of intestinal amino acid transporters. These transporters are responsible for the efficient transfer of amino acids from the gut into the bloodstream, ensuring that the body can utilize these amino acids effectively.


In a study assessing the proteolytic abilities of three probiotic strains, L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201 demonstrated superior performance in breaking down milk and pea proteins, producing the largest protein breakdown halo. The halo generated by L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201 was significantly larger compared to the other strains, specifically 2.4- and 2.5-fold greater than S. thermophiles IDCC 2201 and E. faecium IDCC 2102, respectively. These findings highlight L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201 as the most effective probiotic for enhancing protein digestion.

The ILDONG Bioscience Edge

At ILDONG Bioscience, our approach is rooted in scientific rigor and a deep understanding of the human microbiome. Our strains are meticulously selected and researched to meet the highest standards of efficacy and safety.


The Future of Nutrition with ILDONG Bioscience

The implications of our findings are vast and versatile. From sports nutrition to general wellness, the enhanced absorption of amino acids can significantly impact overall health. Our probiotics offer a promising avenue for improving protein utilization, a crucial aspect of nutrition.


We are excited about the potential these strains hold and are committed to further exploring their benefits. As leaders in the field, ILDONG Bioscience continues to push the boundaries, uncovering new ways in which probiotics can contribute to health and well-being.


The journey of discovery is ongoing, and ILDONG Bioscience is proud to be at its helm. With L. rhamnosus IDCC 3201, L. plantarum IDCC 3501, and L. casei IDCC 3451, we are not just offering probiotics; we are offering a new perspective on health and nutrition. Join us as we continue to explore the incredible potential of these probiotic strains and redefine what's possible in health and wellness.
