In a normal physiological state, several bacteria are present in the human gut that is essential to maintain the normal to healthy gastrointestinal function. Disturbances in this 'normal flora' lead to gut inflammation and infection. This volume explores the potential of probiotics, the healthy bacteria, to manage gut-related diseases including gastrointestinal cancers, ulcerative colitis, H. pylori infections, and diarrhea; vaginosis; oral health; airway inflammation; and atopic dermatitis. The concept of designer probiotics, edible vaccines and future scope of research in the field is also presented. The animal models used for studying the benefits of probiotics in gut inflammation are described for beginners.

Dr. Indu Pal Kaur, presently the Chairperson and Professor of Pharmaceutics at University Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Panjab University, has more than 25 years of teaching and research experience. Her research forte is enhancing bioperformance of small and large biomolecules including probiotics using active-tailored delivery systems. Emphasis of her work lies on clinical translation of her work as evidenced by the transfer of three technologies from her lab to the Industry. She has been granted six Indian and one US patent and has 19 patent applications in the pipeline. She has > 135 high impact publications and 17 book chapters to her credit and falls in the top 2% of highly cited scientists in the world. A book volume on 'Nanobiomedicine' and special issues of journals 'Current Pharmaceutical Design' and 'Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology' have been edited by her. She has received funding to the tune of 72.5 millon INR from Government agencies and has Industrial consultancies amounting to 15.3 million INR. She was awarded the very prestigious 'Fulbright- Fellowship (FNAPE)' by USA, and was a visiting faculty at Rutgers State University, New Jersey, USA for 6 months in 2017-18.
