Abstract Objective Extensively hydrolyzed formulas (eHF) are the first‐line approach for cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA). This study evaluated the effects of eHF with synbiotic eHF (SeHF) on the general condition and symptoms of presumed CMPA infants during the initial 4‐week exclusion diet period.

Characterization of Peptide Utilization by <i>Bifidobacterium bifidum</i>: Insights From Computer Simulations and In Vitro Verification to Enhance Nitrogen Source Utilization. [PDF]
Bifidobacterium bifidum preferentially absorbs short peptides with molecular weights below 2000 Da that are rich in proline (Pro) and leucine (Leu). Molecular docking reveals that the length of transportable peptides correlates with the size of the OppA‐binding cavity, while the presence of Pro and Leu significantly enhances peptide‐OppA interactions ...
