Flavanol monomer-induced changes to the human faecal microflora [PDF]
We have investigated the bacterial-dependent metabolism of ( − )-epicatechin and (+)-catechin using a pH-controlled, stirred, batch-culture fermentation system reflective of the distal region of the human large intestine.

Prebiotics, faecal transplants and microbial network units to stimulate biodiversity of the human gut microbiome [PDF]
Accumulating evidence demonstrates the intimate association between human hosts and the gut microbiome. Starting at birth, the sterile gut of the newborn acquires a diverse spectrum of microbes, needed for immunological priming.

Comprehensive Mapping of Compositional Dynamics in the Formose Reaction Network
Mass spectrometric mapping of target and non‐target products in the formose reaction network was achieved using van Krevelen diagrams and Kendrick mass defect plots. The developed visualization framework offers a powerful means to guide rational strategies for reaction control.

Comparative composition, diversity, and abundance of oligosaccharides in early lactation milk from commercial dairy and beef cows. [PDF]
Prebiotics are nondigestible dietary ingredients, usually oligosaccharides (OS), that provide a health benefit to the host by directly modulating the gut microbiota.
