Review: Roles of Prebiotics in Intestinal Ecosystem of Broilers
In recent years, prebiotics have been considered as potential alternatives to antibiotics. Mechanisms by which prebiotics modulate the ecosystem of the gut include alternation of the intestinal microbiota, improvement of the epithelium, and stimulation ...

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

Reconsidered Concept of «Prebiotics» and Their Impact on the Child’s Organism
Detection of a large number of oligosaccharides in breast milk predetermined their use in the composition of infant formula. The most studied prebiotic simulating the unique properties of breast milk oligosaccharides is the scGOS/lcFOS mixture.

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 ...

The Role of Prebiotics in Modulating Gut Microbiota: Implications for Human Health
The human gut microbiota, an intricate ecosystem within the gastrointestinal tract, plays a pivotal role in health and disease. Prebiotics, non-digestible food ingredients that beneficially affect the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or ...
