Scientific titleEffect of different doses of L. planatrum TENSIA containing probiotic cheese on blood indices and intestinal microflora of healthy adult volunteers: An open label, interventional study
Study acronymTE 5
Study objectives1. The consumption of a probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum strain containing cheese in daily (high) dose of 100g (probiotic dose being 10^11 CFU)
1.1. is safe: no negative gastrointestinal effect, no elevated total cholesterol and no negative shifts in cholesterol fractions
1.2. affects positively the functions of the cardio-vascular system of human body.

2. The consumption of a probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum strain containing cheese in daily (low) dose of 100g (probiotic dose being 10^5 Colony Forming Units [CFU]) has positive impact on blood indices of healthy volunteers.
Ethics approval(s)The Ethics Review Committee on Human Research of the University of Tartu approved on the 22nd of February 2010 (ref: 190T-10)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedblood indices and intestinal microflora
InterventionProbiotic cheese consumption
Group I of volunteers 100 g probiotic cheese once a day for 3 weeks in a daily dose of probitoic being 10^5 CFU
Group II of volunteers 100 g probiotic cheese once a day for 3 weeks in a daily dose of probitoic being 10^11 CFU
Blood, urine and faecal samples are collected at the recruitment, and after 3 weeks of probiotic treatment

Samples of fasting blood, fecal and urine samples will be collected at recruitment and at the end of the trial after administration of the L. plantarum TENSIA comprising cheese.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. The health indices of study participants are assessed at the recruitment and after 3 weeks of probiotic treatment.
1.1. Height
1.2. Weight
1.3. Body mass index (BMI)
1.4. Blood pressure
2. The self-reported questionnaire is applied containing questions on welfare, and habitual gastrointestinal symptoms (abdominal pain, flatulence, bloating, and stool frequency), is filled once a week during the trial
3. Haematological indices will be determined at the recruitment and after 3 weeks of probiotic treatment. by standard laboratory methods using certified assays in the local clinical laboratory (United Laboratories of Tartu University Clinics, Estonia).
3.1. Haemoglobin
3.2. White blood cell count
3.3. Red blood cells count
3.4. Platelet count
4. Routine biochemical indices will be determined at the recruitment and after 3 weeks of probiotic treatment
4.1. Albumin
4.2. Ferritine
4.3. Plasma glucose
4.4. High-sensitive CRP (hs-CRP)
4.5. Total cholesterol
4.6. LDL-cholesterol (LDL)
4.7. HDL-cholesterol (HDL)
4.8. Triglycerides
4.9. Serum creatinine
4.10. Alanine transaminase (ALAT)
4.11. Aspartate transaminase (ASAT)
4.12. Immunoglobulin IgE levels
5. Safety of high doses of TENSIA
Secondary outcome measuresPositive impact on human health
