This is especially true for microorganisms as the versatile production resource for bioengineering for various economic purposes. In this regard, microencapsulation offers certain promise in ensuring the economic functionality and viability of microorganisms. The microbiological risks of using microencapsulation in modern production are discussed. The importance of leading probiotic microencapsulation methods is updated, with the aim of identifying the leading ones. This procedure is also aimed at ensuring the biological and hygienic safety of relevant food, feed, and biopharmaceutical products. Several problematic aspects of microencapsulation of probiotic biosystems are discussed. At the same time, there is an objective need to develop and expand the market for functional foods, functional medicine, and functional feed additives using probiotic microorganisms. This area of biotechnology can be considered both directly for the implementation of food, feed, and medical purposes, and as the production technology with ecologized content. For production practices, it would be beneficial to thoroughly analyze best practices in ensuring the viability and functionality of probiotics, scale up experimental trials, and ensure wider adoption of successful methods and technologies, including microencapsulation. Expanding the product range would be beneficial, for example, through differentiation and the introduction of new lines of functional foods, functional feed supplements, and expanding the range of probiotic-based biopharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> microencapsulation; probiotics; microorganisms; bacteria; functional food; public health; cell viability; biotechnology; industrial scaling; ecological content<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maltseva Ksenia Alekseevna Russian Biotechnological University (ROSBIOTEC&#8217;H), Moscow, Russia Larionov Maxim Viktorovich Russian Biotechnological University (ROSBIOTEC&#8217;H), Moscow, Russia E-mail: m.larionow2014@yandex.ru ORCID: https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0834-2462 SciProfiles: https:\/\/sciprofiles.com\/profile\/1548819 WoS: https:\/\/www.webofscience.com\/wos\/author\/rid\/N-8885-2016 SCOPUS: https:\/\/www.scopus.com\/authid\/detail.url?authorId=57191472790 Abstract.
