Fructans: Prebiotics and immunomodulators
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]
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
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 ...

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

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