The effect of supplementation of encapsulated Bifidobacterium bifidum 235 with prebiotic in milk fat rich high cholesterol diet on the serum HDL and LDL cholesterol, the samples were collected on every 15 days interval. The LDL-Cholesterol (44.01%) of rats feed on high cholesterol diet supplemented with encapsulated synbiotic were significantly lower than all other groups, however there was significant increase in HDL- Cholesterol (4.55%) in rats fed with high cholesterol diet supplemented with encapsulated symbiotic. The reduction in LDL-Cholesterol (29.84%) was observed in rats feed with high cholesterol diet supplemented with encapsulated Bifidobacterium bifidum 235 which may be due to encapsulation that protected organisms from adverse conditions of gastro intestinal tract. The relatively lesser in LDL-Cholesterol and Increase in HDL-Cholesterol (4.97%) in rats fed with high cholesterol diet with non encapsulated synbiotic may be due to feeding of non-encapsulated synbiotic. In rats fed with high cholesterol diet with non encapsulated Bifidobacterium bifidum 235 there was a least reduction in the LDL-Cholesterol (5.63%) and increase in HDL-Cholesterol (0.379%) when compared with fed only on control diet.
