Fructans: Prebiotics and immunomodulators

open access: yesJournal of Functional Foods, 2014
Fructans are natural fructose polymers that are used for their prebiotic and health improving properties in functional foods. Although the immunomodulatory effects of fructans on animal cells are known, their mode of action has only recently been unraveled.

Probiotics and Prebiotics in Pediatrics [PDF]

open access: yesPediatrics, 2010
This Clinical Report was reaffirmed March 2021. This clinical report reviews the currently known health benefits of probiotic and prebiotic products, including those added to commercially available infant formula and other food products for use in children. Probiotics are supplements or foods that contain viable microorganisms that cause

A Chemist’s Perspective on the Role of Phosphorus at the Origins of Life

open access: yesLife, 2017
The central role that phosphates play in biological systems, suggests they also played an important role in the emergence of life on Earth. In recent years, numerous important advances have been made towards understanding the influence that phosphates ...

Microbiota responses to different prebiotics are conserved within individuals and associated with habitual fiber intake

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2022
Background Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from gut bacteria are associated with protective roles in diseases ranging from obesity to colorectal cancers. Intake of microbially accessible dietary fibers (prebiotics) lead to varying effects on SCFA

Sulfidic Anion Concentrations on Early Earth for Surficial Origins-of-Life Chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A key challenge in origin-of-life studies is understanding the environmental conditions on early Earth under which abiogenesis occurred. While some constraints do exist (e.g., zircon evidence for surface liquid water), relatively few constraints exist on the abundances of trace chemical species, which are relevant to assessing the plausibility and ...

Prebiotic metabolic networks? [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2014
A prebiotic origin of metabolism has been proposed as one of several scenarios for the origin of life. In their recent work, Ralser and colleagues (Keller et al, ) observe an enzyme‐free, metabolism‐like reaction network under conditions reproducing a possible prebiotic environment.

A Concept Formula With Large, Milk Phospholipid‐Coated Lipid Droplets Enriched With Milk Fat Decreases Palmitic Acid and Calcium Levels in Stools of Healthy, Term Infants

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Lipid Science and Technology, Volume 124, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Less formation of calcium soaps in infant formula containing (more) sn‐2 palmitate (PA) Top: pathway of sn‐1,3 PA, Bottom: pathway of sn‐2 PA Abstract This study evaluates the impact of an infant formula comprising large, dairy milk phospholipid‐coated lipid droplets containing a vegetable‐dairy lipid mixture (Concept‐Mix) with 6% of fatty acid (FA) as

Oral application of probiotic, prebiotic, and synbiotic in Pacific white shrimp(Litopenaeus vannamei)challenged with Vibrio harveyi

open access: yesJurnal Akuakultur Indonesia, 2013
The use of antibiotics for controlling of luminous vibriosis caused by Vibrio harveyi is restricted now, because it induces antibiotic-resistant bacteria and leave residue in shrimp’s body.

In vitro screening of probiotic lactic acid bacteria and prebiotic glucooligosaccharides to select effective synbiotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Probiotics and prebiotics have been demonstrated to positively modulate the intestinal microflora and could promote host health. Although some studies have been performed on combinations of probiotics and prebiotics, constituting synbiotics, results on ...
