PREBIOTICS AND PROBIOTICS [PDF]
Journal of Probiotics & Health, 2009 Intestinal flora encompasses at least 500 different types of bacteria living in symbiosis with their host. The dominant microflora in the stomach is Gram-positive bacteria; while in the distal small intestine and the colon is Gram-negative type. The most important intestinal bacteria are bacteroides, bifidobacteria, Enterobacteraceae, lactobacilli ...

Gastrointestinal effects of prebiotics [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 2002 The defining effect of prebiotics is to stimulate selectively the growth of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the gut and, thereby, increase the body's natural resistance to invading pathogens. Prebiotic carbohydrates may also have additional, less specific, benefits because they are fermented in the large intestine.

SVU-International Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2019 This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of prebiotic on behavioural patterns performance and some blood parameters of ducks. A total of forty-eight 15 days-aged ducks (Mule) were randomly allotted to three dietary

INULIN: ITS USE AS A PREBIOTIC IN RUMINANT NUTRITION
Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2022 Background. Prebiotics stimulate the growth and activity of the beneficial microbiota of the digestive tract, improve the health of the host and act as growth promoters.

The SKA as a prebiotic molecule detector [PDF]
, 2022 One of the theories for the origin of life proposes that a significant fraction of prebiotic material could have arrived to Earth from outer space between 4.1 and 3.8 billion years ago. This suggests that those prebiotic compounds could have originated in interstellar space, to be later on incorporated to small Solar-system bodies and planetesimals ...

Prebiotic Oligosaccharides Potentiate Host Protective Responses against L. Monocytogenes Infection. [PDF]
, 2017 Prebiotic oligosaccharides are used to modulate enteric pathogens and reduce pathogen shedding. The interactions with prebiotics that alter Listeria monocytogenes infection are not yet clearly delineated. L.

On the Origins of Life's Homochirality: Inducing Enantiomeric Excess with Spin-Polarized Electrons [PDF]
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 119 (2022), 2022 Life as we know it is homochiral, but the origins of biological homochirality on early Earth remain elusive. Shallow closed-basin lakes are a plausible prebiotic environment on early Earth, and most are expected to have significant sedimentary magnetite deposits.
