Metabolic Model-based Ecological Modeling for Probiotic Design [PDF]
The microbial community composition in the human gut has a profound effect on human health. This observation has lead to extensive use of microbiome therapies, including over-the-counter ``probiotic" treatments intended to alter the composition of the microbiome.

Control of magnetic susceptibility of probiotic strain Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG [PDF]
The paper investigates the increase in the natural magnetically controlled properties of probiotic microorganisms Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and their ability to form magnetic sensitive inclusions (MsI). The magnetic susceptibility of LGG was increased by modifying the nutrient medium composition and by cultivating the probiotic culture in a ...

Early-life intestinal microbiota development is crucial for host’s long-term health and is influenced by many factors including gestational age, birth and feeding modes, birth environment, ethnic/geographical background, etc. However, ‘quantitative’ data

Multiple stable states in microbial communities explained by the stable marriage problem [PDF]
Experimental studies of microbial communities routinely reveal that they have multiple stable states. While each of these states is generally resilient, certain perturbations such as antibiotics, probiotics and diet shifts, result in transitions to other states.

PREBIOTICS AND PROBIOTICS [PDF]
Intestinal flora encompasses at least 500 different types of bacteria living in symbiosis with their host. The dominant microflora in the stomach is Gram-positive bacteria; while in the distal small intestine and the colon is Gram-negative type. The most important intestinal bacteria are bacteroides, bifidobacteria, Enterobacteraceae, lactobacilli ...

Hypothesis tests for multiple responses regression: effect of probiotics on addiction and binge eating disorder [PDF]
Clinical trials are common in medical research where multiple non-Gaussian responses and time-dependent observations are frequent. The analysis of data from these studies requires statistical modeling techniques that take these characteristics into account.

In the present study, we created the weight gain models with Min and Yorkshire pigs and conducted the metagenomics and metabolomics of colon contents and transcriptomics of colon tissue. Further, we revealed the characteristics and functions of the colonic microbiota in Min and Yorkshire pigs and analyzed their interactions with the host. Overall, this

The aim of this review is to summarize the effect in host energy metabolism of the production of B group vitamins and short chain fatty acids (SCFA) by commensal, food-grade and probiotic bacteria, which are also actors of the mammalian nutrition.

Humans have long-used mushrooms as food and medicine, but digestion and colonic fermentation of most mushrooms, including Lentinus squarrosulus is markedly unknown. Here, nutritional profile, digestion and colonic fermentation of L.
