Rhizobacteria Exopolysaccharide: A Boon in Reclaiming Soil Fertility, Augmenting Plant Growth and Plant Stress Resilience

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) enhance plant stress tolerance and soil health by improving water retention, nutrient cycling, and resilience to salinity and heavy metals, offering a biodegradable and eco‐friendly alternative to synthetic polymers for sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) serve multiple industrial and

Use of the oral microbiota as screening test to identify children at risk for caries development. A systematic review of longitudinal studies

European Journal of Oral Sciences, Volume 134, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract This study investigated trends in oral microbiota composition (index test) that could indicate potential candidates to identify children at risk for dental caries development compared with visual/tactile examination (reference test). MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, Lilacs, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases were searched up ...

Inulin alleviates atherosclerosis through improving lipid metabolism, inflammation, and gut microbiota in ApoE-knockout mice: the short-chain is more efficacious

Frontiers in Pharmacology
IntroductionAtherosclerosis (AS) is considered the underlying cause of many diseases, particularly cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Inulin, a type of fructan, has shown potential in improving atherosclerosis, although there are conflicting ...

Maize‐derived arabinoxylans modulate starch pasting, gel structure, and retrogradation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2300-2310, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Starch–fiber interactions play a paramount role in determining the functional quality and stability of starch‐based food products. This study systematically examined how maize arabinoxylans (MAX) influences the hydration, pasting, textural, and microstructural properties of maize starch gels.

Pomegranate juice combined with inulin promote their mutual metabolic transformation by gut microbiota and prevent HFD-induced metabolic disorder in rats

Food Science and Human Wellness
High-fat diet (HFD) promotes the imbalance of gut microbiota, contributing to the development of metabolic disorders. Pomegranate juice (PJ) and inulin, as dietary polyphenol and dietary fiber respectively, have been reported to ameliorate diet-induced ...

Cystatin C‐based eGFR better predicts renal vancomycin clearance than creatinine‐based eGFR in patients with allogeneic stem cell transplantation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 3, Page 669-677, March 2026.
Knowledge of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is mandatory when dosing renally eliminated drugs such as vancomycin. In clinical practice, different biomarkers and various equations are used to estimate GFR (eGFR), resulting in varying estimates.

Molecular hydrogen as a potential mediator of the antitumor effect of inulin consumption

Scientific Reports
Inulin consumption and dihydrogen (H2) administration both exert antitumor effects on preclinical models as well as in clinical trials. As H2 is one of the major byproducts of inulin fermentation by bacterial species of the gut microbiota (GM), we ...
