Utilization of Fruit Juice Processing Wastes as Prebiotic Ingredients in Probiotic Yogurt: Effects on Microbial Short Chain Fatty Acid Production. [PDF]
This study evaluated fruit juice processing wastes (apricot, peach, apple, and grape pomace) as prebiotic sources in probiotic yogurt. The addition of these pomaces led to significant increases (p < 0.05) in short‐chain fatty acids (acetate, butyrate, propionate), benefiting gut microbiota.

Laxative Effect of Lactobacillus paracasei Glory LP16 on Loperamide‐Induced Constipation in Mice
ABSTRACT Constipation is a common gastrointestinal disease. In recent years, probiotic intervention has often been used to solve such problems. However, the results of existing studies on different intervention times and dose differences are not consistent. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research on specific strains.

(1) The main chain structure of Holothuria leucospilota polysaccharides (HLP‐Ⅰ) was presumed to be roughly as →3)‐β‐d‐GalpNAc‐(1→4)‐β‐d‐GlcpA‐(1→. (2) with T‐Fucp on the branched chain or a rockulose chain consisting of →3,4)‐α‐l‐Fucp‐(1→. (3) HLP‐Ⅰ showed high amorphous platelet content and disordered arrangement, while the molecule adapted a sphere ...

This study evaluated the effect of soluble dietary fiber from Ganoderma sinense on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by establishing in vitro cell and in vivo mouse models. Ganoderma sinense soluble dietary fiber (GSSDF) alleviates nonalcoholic fatty liver disease by regulating lipid metabolism and reducing oxidative stress.
