Characterization of galactooligosaccharides produced by β-galactosidase immobilized onto magnetized Dacron [PDF]
Bioconversions using enzymes immobilized in magnetic supports present significant advantages due to the easy separation of the enzyme from the reaction mixture and the simplicity and low cost of the support preparation.

Using Evidence to Get the Most Out of Dietary Interventions in Irritable Bowel Syndrome
ABSTRACT Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic disorder of gut–brain interaction characterized by abdominal pain and abnormal stool form or frequency. IBS symptoms often commence after, or are exacerbated by, eating. People with IBS are, therefore, increasingly interested in the role of food or dietary constituents in triggering their symptoms ...

Reconsidered Concept of «Prebiotics» and Their Impact on the Child’s Organism
Detection of a large number of oligosaccharides in breast milk predetermined their use in the composition of infant formula. The most studied prebiotic simulating the unique properties of breast milk oligosaccharides is the scGOS/lcFOS mixture.

Cosmetic Interventions for Skin Microbiome Modulation: Current Strategies and Future Directions
ABSTRACT Background Human skin harbors a highly diverse and dynamic microbiome that maintains barrier function and homeostasis, while endogenous/exogenous factors and cosmetic products modulate microbial balance. Dysbiosis contributes to inflammatory diseases like atopic dermatitis and acne; however, evidence for microbiome‐targeted cosmetics remains ...

In vitro evaluation of defined oligosaccharide fractions in an equine model of inflammation [PDF]
Background: Dietary supplementation with oligosaccharides has been proven to be beneficial for health in several mammalian species. Next to prebiotic effects resulting in a modulation of gut micro biota, immunomodulatory effects of oligosaccharides have ...

Computer‐Aided Functional Oligosaccharide Screening and the Regulatory Role in Lipid Metabolism
ABSTRACT This study investigated the lipid‐lowering effects and intervention mechanisms of structurally diverse functional oligosaccharides on non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). By integrating computational tools such as molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations (MDS), a comprehensive “in silico‐in vitro‐in vivo” tri‐dimensional ...

Abstract This research aimed to enhance the storage stability and functional potential of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum through encapsulation using the spray drying technique. The probiotics were encapsulated with 10% carrier materials—corn starch, maltodextrin, and Acacia gum—combined with the prebiotic fructo ...
