Stress Response in Bifidobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2022
Bifidobacteria naturally inhabit diverse environments, including the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and animals. Members of the genus are of considerable scientific interest due to their beneficial effects on health and, hence, their potential to be used as probiotics.

Plant Glycan Metabolism by Bifidobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Members of the genus Bifidobacterium, of which the majority have been isolated as gut commensals, are Gram-positive, non-motile, saccharolytic, non-sporulating, anaerobic bacteria. Many bifidobacterial strains are considered probiotic and therefore are thought to bestow health benefits upon their host.
