State of the Art Manufacturing

This process, which is both simple and complex, is one where state-of-the-art equipment and the knowledge of expert technicians play a key role in order to produce probiotics at the highest possible standardized concentration.

Mother-culture & Fermentation The bacteria proliferate in culture media of increasing volume, until they are placed in the fermentor. The resulting probiotic culture goes from clear to cloudy as the bacteria reproduce.
Filtration Once fermentation is complete, the culture is then concentrated to reduce its volume and protected to survive the next phase.
Lyophilization (freeze-drying) The concentrated bacterial culture is frozen at – 40°C. Then, through a process called sublimation, the ice is converted into steam, yielding a solid crust ready for grinding.
Grinding  The crust is then gently ground into a fine powder with a high bacterial concentration. This is called the pure culture.
Mixing The pure culture is mixed with excipients to make the subsequent encapsulation or compression phase possible.

Packaging 
Specific Udo's Choice Probiotics are available in powder, capsule or lozenge formats. Flora uses vegetarian capsules because of their low moisture content which prolongs the shelf life of moisture sensitive products such as probiotics. Flora uses only light-resistant, recyclable, nonreactive, nitrogen flushed, dark brown glass bottles which prolong stability and product integrity.
