Abstract

The present application relates to methods for producing materials having viable micro-organisms incorporated therein. More particularly, the materials are produced under high temperature and/or high pressure conditions, and the micro-organisms are incorporated in the material before or during these conditions. Also provided are micro-organisms that remain viable under these conditions and have different applications, depending on the nature of the material.
