Survival of Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 (control) and GroESL-overproducing Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 (GroESL) following spray-drying (a) and freeze-drying (b). White bars represent powders plated on MRS and shaded bars represent powders plated on MRS containing NaCl (5% wt/vol). Insets show transmission electron micrographs of Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 (1) and GroESL-overproducing Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 (2) following spray-drying, and Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 (3) and GroESL-overproducing Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 (4) following freeze-drying. GroESL-overproducing Lb. paracasei NFBC 338 appeared to be more robust following both drying procedures compared to the control strain (adapted from Corcoran et al. [5]).
