An Enterococcus faecalis isolate harboring both aerobic and anaerobic uric acid metabolic pathways alleviates hyperuricemia in mice

Food Science and Human Wellness
Probiotics have been demonstrated to be effective and safe for hyperuricemia (HUA) and gout treatment. Hence, identifying microbes with high uric acid- or purine-metabolizing ability is highly important. Due to the high load of uric acid in chicken feces,
