Prebiotics, faecal transplants and microbial network units to stimulate biodiversity of the human gut microbiome [PDF]
Accumulating evidence demonstrates the intimate association between human hosts and the gut microbiome. Starting at birth, the sterile gut of the newborn acquires a diverse spectrum of microbes, needed for immunological priming.

Bifidostimulating ingredients for dessert fermented products
Fermented sour-milk dessert products of a functional orientation are becoming increasingly popular in Ukraine. Dairy desserts have good taste properties, high nutritional and biological value and dense, non-flowing consistency. A wide range of additions,

Improvement of neuropsychological performances and reduction of immune-activation markers after probiotic supplementation and change of life-style in an HIV positive male: targeting the microbiota to act on gut-brain axis [PDF]
The gut-brain axis is widely in uenced by the intestinal microbiota and dysbiosis is consequently associated with a large dysregulation of its functions. Probiotic supplementation, reducing the harmful effects of dysbiosis, has shown positive effects not

Bifidobacteria exhibit social behavior through carbohydrate resource sharing in the gut
Bifidobacteria are common and frequently dominant members of the gut microbiota of many animals, including mammals and insects. Carbohydrates are considered key carbon sources for the gut microbiota, imposing strong selective pressure on the complex ...

Parenteral Antibiotics Reduce Bifidobacteria Colonization and Diversity in Neonates
We investigated the impact of parenteral antibiotic treatment in the early neonatal period on the evolution of bifidobacteria in the newborn. Nine babies treated with intravenous ampicillin/gentamicin in the first week of life and nine controls (no ...

Improved detection of bifidobacteria with optimised 16S rRNA-gene based pyrosequencing.
The 16S rRNA gene is conserved across all bacteria and as such is routinely targeted in PCR surveys of bacterial diversity. PCR primer design aims to amplify as many different 16S rRNA gene sequences from as wide a range of organisms as possible, though ...

Antitumor mechanisms of bifidobacteria.
Cancer remains one of the most common causes of mortality globally. Chemotherapy, one of the major treatment strategies for cancer, primarily functions by targeting the cancer cells and affecting them physiologically, but also affects normal cells, which
