Conclusions<br />
• The health-promoting, functional food market is a growing<br />
market.<br />
• Probiotics play an important role in gut health.<br />
• Health-promoting properties are strain-/product-specific,<br />
matrix-dependent, and individual-dependent.<br />
• Food manufacturers should apply a careful strain selection<br />
and correct labelling.<br />
• Mechanisms of action are becoming elucidated.<br />
• Health claims should be supported by scientific studies<br />
(mechanistic studies, human trials, ...).<br />
• More research is needed to justify the launch of new<br />
probiotics in general and of probiotic fermented sausages in<br />
particular, particularly with respect to human studies.
