The present invention relates to coated dehydrated microorganisms comprising a dehydrated microorganism surrounded by at least one coating, said coating comprising by dry weight at least 25% of hygroscopic salt(s) and wherein the pH of the coating is compatible with viability of the coated dehydrated microorganism. The coating can be partially crystalline, the salt(s) in the coating having preferably a crystallinity degree of up to 60% once applied onto the dehydrated microorganism. The present invention also relates to liquid coating compositions, methods for coating and protecting a dehydrated microorganism. Finally, the present invention relates to a method for the preparation of food products, feed products, consumer healthcare products or agri-products as well as to a food product, feed product, a consumer healthcare product or an agri-product containing such coated dehydrated microorganisms. 1. A coated dehydrated microorganism comprising a dehydrated microorganism surrounded by at least one coating , said coating comprising by dry weight at least 25% of hygroscopic salt(s) , and wherein the pH of the coating is compatible with viability of the coated dehydrated microorganism.2. The coated dehydrated microorganism according to claim 1 , wherein said coating comprises by dry weight at least 28% of a hygroscopic salt or mixture thereof claim 1 , more preferably at least 30% claim 1 , more preferably at least 40% claim 1 , more preferably at least 50% claim 1 , more preferably at least 60% claim 1 , more preferably at least 70% claim 1 , more preferably at least 80%.3. The coated dehydrated microorganism according to or claim 1 , wherein the coating consists of 100% by dry weight of hygroscopic salt(s).4. The coated dehydrated microorganism according to any of the preceding claims claim 1 , wherein the hygroscopic salt(s) is(are) a hygroscopic salt per se or becomes a hygroscopic salt after being applied onto the dehydrated microorganism.5. The coated dehydrated ...
