The Institute of Meat and Dairy Industry of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus (NASB) has selected strains and microorganism combinations for biotechnological experiments to be conducted on the ISS, BelTA learned from the NASB press service.
“As part of the scientific program on the International Space Station (ISS) the first Belarusian woman cosmonaut Marina Vasilevskaya is set to perform biotechnological experiments on cultivation and storage of samples of probiotic strains of lactic acid microorganisms and bifidobacteria in space flight conditions, as well as production of samples of fermented milk products with a complex of probiotic cultures. Scientists of the NASB Institute of Meat and Dairy Industry have selected strains of lactic acid microorganisms and bifidobacteria, determined the optimal nutrient media and milk bases for the development of strains and combinations of cultures as part of an experiment in space flight conditions. The research will provide new data on the safety and properties of strains of lactic acid microorganisms and bifidobacteria, as well as their combinations in the state of anabiosis and after cultivation, parameters for obtaining fermented milk products in space flight conditions,” the press service said.
