Methanogens, Methane and Gastrointestinal Motility [PDF]

Journal of Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 2014
Anaerobic fermentation of the undigested polysaccharide fraction of carbohydrates produces hydrogen in the intestine which is the substrate for methane production by intestinal methanogens. Hydrogen and methane are excreted in the flatus and in breath giving the opportunity to indirectly measure their production using breath testing.
