Enhancing human gut health: Global innovations in dysbiosis management
The microbiota, comprising all the microorganisms within the body, plays a critical role in maintaining good health. Dysbiosis represents a condition resulting from an imbalance or alteration of the microbiota. This study comprehensively investigates the patent literature on dysbiosis over the past 20 years.

Low‐carbohydrate high‐fat weight reduction diet induces changes in human gut microbiota
Obesity has become a major public health problem in recent decades. More effective interventions may result from a better understanding of microbiota alterations caused by weight loss and diet.

Specificity and sensitivity evaluation of novel and existing Bacteroidales and Bifidobacteria-specific PCR assays on feces and sewage samples and their application for microbial source tracking in Ireland [PDF]
Three novel ruminant-specific PCR assays, an existing ruminant-specific PCR assay and five existing human-specific PCR assays, which target 16S rDNA from Bacteroidales or Bifidobacteria, were evaluated.

Genome of Bifidobacteria and Carbohydrate Metabolism [PDF]
In recent years, the knowledge about bifidobacteria has considerably evolved thanks to recent progress in molecular biology. The analysis of the whole genome sequences of 48 taxa of bifidobacteria offers new perspectives for their classification, especially to set up limit between two species.

Engineered strategies for the allergic disease therapy
Allergic diseases exist widely across the globe and now there are very limited therapeutics for the treatment of these diseases. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in engineering strategies including nanoemulsion and hydrogel to improve the therapeutic efficacy of allergen‐specific immunotherapy with decreased side effects and long‐term ...

Hop as a phytogenic alternative to antibiotic growth promoters in poultry production
Abstract With the rapid growth of the world's population, the demand for food is also increasing. Poultry accounts for 40% of the global meat sector and therefore represents a significant area for further growth. One starting point for increasing production is to refine the composition of feed to improve the efficiency of growth and nutrient ...

Characterization of GH2 and GH42 β-galactosidases derived from bifidobacterial infant isolates
Bifidobacteria are among the first and most abundant bacterial colonizers of the gastrointestinal tract of (breast-fed) healthy infants. Their success of colonising the infant gut is believed to be, at least partly, due to their ability to metabolize ...
