In vitro screening of probiotic lactic acid bacteria and prebiotic glucooligosaccharides to select effective synbiotics [PDF]
Probiotics and prebiotics have been demonstrated to positively modulate the intestinal microflora and could promote host health. Although some studies have been performed on combinations of probiotics and prebiotics, constituting synbiotics, results on ...

Butyrate producing bacteria are one of the major components of the human gut microbiota. Their major metabolite, butyrate, has several beneficial properties for host health. Fructooligosaccharides (FOSs) are well documented prebiotics and are hydrolyzed by intracellular glycoside hydrolase family 32 (GH32) enzyme in several butyrate producers, whereas ...

Biopolymer gels containing fructooligosaccharides
The influence of the addition of fructooligosaccharide (FOS) in an external gelated alginate/gelatin biopolymer matrix, was evaluated in order to produce biopolymeric structures with functional effects. Solutions were characterized regarding their rheological properties, macrogels regarding their microstructure and mechanical properties and microgels ...

Cross-linked whole cells for the sucrose transfructosylation reaction in a continuous reactor [PDF]
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are fructose oligomers beneficial to human health and nutrition for prebiotic sugars. Their production occurs by a transfructosylation reaction in sucrose molecules catalyzed by fructosyltransferase enzymes (FTase, E.C.2.4.1 ...
