A Review of Prebiotics Against Salmonella in Poultry: Current and Future Potential for Microbiome Research Applications

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018
Prebiotics are typically fermentable feed additives that can directly or indirectly support a healthy intestinal microbiota. Prebiotics have gained increasing attention in the poultry industry as wariness toward antibiotic use has grown in the face of ...

Established and emerging prebiotics for gut microbiota [PDF]

Microbiota in Health and Disease
The concept of prebiotics was introduced more than two decades ago, but these bioactive molecules still represent an attractive area of research. This is due to their close connection with the intestinal microbiota and, consequently, of the entire human ...

Maternal obesity and resistance to breast cancer treatments among offspring: Link to gut dysbiosis

Cancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background About 50 000 new cases of cancer in the United States are attributed to obesity. The adverse effects of obesity on breast cancer may be most profound when affecting the early development; that is, in the womb of a pregnant obese mother.

Immobilization of Kluyveromyces lactis β‐Galactosidase on Meso‐macroporous Silica: Use of Infrared Spectroscopy to Rationalize the Catalytic Efficiency

ChemPlusChem, Volume 87, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
A deeper understanding regarding the enzyme‐carrier interactions and the enzyme conformation may bring clues about the inherent processes that occur during enzyme immobilization. In this study, the enzyme β‐galactosidase was immobilized on a meso‐macroporous silica carrier, and infrared spectroscopy allowed the search for such clues to explain the ...

Frequently asked questions about the ISAPP postbiotic definition

Frontiers in Microbiology
The term postbiotic was defined by the International Scientific Association of Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) as “a preparation of inanimate microorganisms and/or their components that confers a health benefit on the host.” Although the ISAPP ...

Pre-cultivation with Selected Prebiotics Enhances the Survival and the Stress Response of Lactobacillus rhamnosus Strains in Simulated Gastrointestinal Transit

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
In our study, we dwelled upon combinations of lactobacilli/prebiotics, considering four different strains belonging to the Lactobacillus rhamnosus species, including Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG), and different prebiotics often found in commercial ...

Influence of the UV Environment on the Synthesis of Prebiotic Molecules [PDF]

, 2015
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is common to most planetary environments, and could play a key role in the chemistry of molecules relevant to abiogenesis (prebiotic chemistry). In this work, we explore the impact of UV light on prebiotic chemistry that might occur in liquid water on the surface of a planet with an atmosphere.

Fructans: Prebiotics and immunomodulators

Journal 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.
