Response of intestinal Escherichia coli to dietary factors in the mouse intestine
… weeks: a diet rich in starch, a diet rich in non-digestible lactose and a diet rich in casein. Two dimensional gel electrophoresis and electrospray tandem mass spectrometry were applied to identify differentially expressed proteins of E. coli recovered from small intestine and caecum of mice …

Effect of a Fermented Yeast Product on the Gastrointestinal Tract Microbial Diversity of Weaned Pigs Challenged With Salmonella Enterica Typhimurium Dt104
… of the GIT bacteria that can ferment these non-digestible compounds, producing various short chain fatty acids used by the animal. The objective of this study was to quantify the effects of a proprietary Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (XPC, Diamond V Mills, Inc., Cedar Rapids, …

Effects of short-chain fructooligosaccharides and galactooligosaccharides, individually and in combination, on nutrient digestibility, fecal fermentative metabolite concentrations, and large bowel microbial ecology of healthy adult cats
… (scFOS) and galactooligosaccharides (GOS) are non-digestible oligosaccharides that result in a prebiotic effect in some animal species; however, the cat has not been well studied in this regard. This experiment evaluated scFOS and GOS supplementation on nutrient digestibility, fermentative …

ENZYMATIC PRODUCTION OF PURIFIED ISOMALTOOLIGOSACCHARIDES PREBIOTIC PREPARATIONS AND THEIR FULL QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE CHARACTERIZATION
Prebiotics are non-digestible food ingredients that beneficially affect the host health by stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or a limited number of bacteria in the colon, and moreover can have systemic effects on metabolism regulation. Recent studies have pointed out the certain links …

Influence of Pre-meal Inulin Consumption on Energy Intake in Overweight and Obese Middle-aged and Older Adults: A Pilot Study
… of fiber, prebiotics are selectively fermented non-digestible food ingredients that have a favorable impact on the composition and activity of the gut microbiota. Specifically, inulin-type fructans (ITF) including inulin, oligosaccharides, and fructooligosaccharides have been generating interest …

The Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci for Sucrose and Stachyose Content in Soybean Seed
… and taste of soyfoods, while stachyose is a non-digestible sugar that induces flatulence in non-ruminant animals. Therefore, soybean cultivars with high sucrose and/or low stachyose would be valuable for soyfood and meal markets. The objectives of this study were to identify quantitative …

Pet food: quality and quality improvement
… investigated in vitro the effects of several non-digestible oligosaccharides (NDO) on dog intestinal microflora composition and metabolism. Substrates were fermented using a canine faecal inoculum that was incubated in anaerobic serum bottles and syringes. Substrates were added at the final …

Impact of Brewing Industry Byproducts Used as Feed Additives for Aquaculture-Raised Fish: Studies of the Host-Microbe Relationship
… is one possibility. Prebiotics refer to non-digestible food ingredients that are thought to stimulate the growth of beneficial bacteria, consequently benefiting host health by indirectly reducing the possibility of bacterial pathogen proliferation. This occurs through various measures …

Flightless Giant Canada Goose Depredation Abatement and Disgestibility of Selected Crops in South Dakota
… goose goslings to determine the nutritional and digestible qualities of 4 possible food plot forages. Carrying capacity for goose food plots was determined. Alfalfa visual barrier breakthrough sites had significantly lesser height-density characteristics than the barrier as a whole with both …

Dietary supplementation of a fiber-prebiotic-gut health promoter blend in extruded diets fed to dogs
… dosage. Both prebiotics and dietary fibers are non-digestible ingredients that may confer benefits to the host by selectively stimulating beneficial intestinal bacteria and affecting rate of fermentation and concentrations of fermentative end-products. Therefore, the aim of this experiment was …

Characterization of Phagosome-Lysosome Fusion in Macrophages
… serum concentration, or prior uptake of digestible or non-digestible substances. Fusion was also not affected by enzymatic modification or concanavalin A crosslinking of the plasma membrane or by coating the phagocytic particle with concanavalin A or immune serum. Pretreatment of cells …

Evaluating glucose-based carbohydrates for use in canine diets
… ingredient that consists of 60% RS and 40% digestible starch. In our first aim, we determined that whole grains and grain fractions contain many essential nutrients including amino acids and minerals, and may provide a significant source of fiber. Because the chemical composition of grains …

Colonization dynamics of oro-gastrointestinal microbes critical to infant health
… infant formulas with prebiotics. Prebiotics, non-digestible carbohydrates that promote bacterial growth, stimulate the growth of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in infants. Microbial analysis of infants fed prebiotics is restricted to measuring alterations in the fecal microbiota. Typically, …
