In vitro fermentability of prebiotic oligosaccharides by lactobacilli

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2011
Twelve strains of lactobacilli were tested for their growth and ability to utilise six prebiotics (pure substances and commercially available prebiotics) as a sole carbon source. All strains showed a considerable growth on all prebiotics tested.

Effect of medicinal and food homologous plants polysaccharides on animal nutrition and health: A review

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract As one of the most important components of foods, animal meat provides a lot of protein, fat, and energy for humans. However, nutrition and health of animals directly affect the healthiness of human, especially antibiotic residues in animals induced by abuse of antibiotics.

Cold plasma‐induced modifications in the physico‐functional properties of glucan exopolysaccharide derived from Enterococcus hirae OL616073

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the influence of cold plasma treatment on the physicochemical characteristics of glucan exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Enterococcus hirae OL616073 isolated from idli batter. The glucan EPS was exposed to pin‐to‐plate atmospheric cold plasma at 170–230 V for 5–15 min, generating cold plasma‐treated glucan (CPTG ...

Optimizing the encapsulation of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus acidophilus for enhanced storage stability and gut viability using spray drying

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract This research aimed to enhance the storage stability and functional potential of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum through encapsulation using the spray drying technique. The probiotics were encapsulated with 10% carrier materials—corn starch, maltodextrin, and Acacia gum—combined with the prebiotic fructo ...

Knowledge and awareness of Palestinian health care professionals towards probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics: a cross-sectional study from Palestine

Journal of Biological Research
Probiotics are live microorganisms believed to confer health benefits when consumed appropriately. Prebiotics are non-digestible food components that promote health by encouraging the growth or activity of beneficial microorganisms.

Inflammatory bowel disease and metabolic reprogramming: From pathological mechanisms to targeted interventions

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review explores the role of metabolic reprogramming in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by focusing on immune and epithelial cell metabolism, microbial metabolites, and their impact on inflammation. It discusses emerging metabolic therapies and emphasizes the importance of personalized microbiota‐targeted approaches to improve clinical outcomes in

prebiotic phosphorus chemistry reconsidered

Origins of life and evolution of the biosphere, 1997
The available evidence indicates that the origin of life on Earth certainly occurred earlier than 3.5 billion years ago and perhaps substantially earlier. The time available for the chemical evolution which must have preceded this event is more difficult to estimate.

Probiotic consumption reduces alveolar bone loss and kidney damage in pregnant rats with experimental periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019) is a probiotic bacterial strain with immunomodulatory properties. Its benefits have been observed in healthy and systemically compromised animals with periodontitis (PD). Our objective was to investigate the local and systemic effects of the systemic administration of B.
