In vitro | Ribitol is a crystalline pentose alcohol. [1] Ribitol is characterized from the plant Adonis vernalis. [2] Ribitol in 10% NFSM suspending medium exerts 1.45 to 2.18 times the protective effect exerted by glycerol at equal concentration. The cryoprotective action of Ribitol reaches its highest level at 0.75 M. For 11 of the 13 organisms tested including S. lactis T164, the degree of protection conferred by Ribitol is >80%. Ribitol has a strong protective effect on lactic acid bacteria during freeze-drying. [3] |
