Harnessing N-glycans as Next Generation Prebiotics
… methods to study N-glycans as next-generation prebiotics. To begin to address this, a novel yeast-synthesized whey isolate was compared to traditional bovine whey isolate in their protein and N-glycome composition. The bovine whey contained predominantly complex type N-glycans while the …

Probiotic metabolism of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and prebiotics
… it has been postulated that HMOs serve as prebiotics by promoting the growth of bifidobacteria in the infant gastrointestinal tract (GIT). In this study, the first aim was to investigate the probiotic metabolism of HMOs and HMO precursors. Growth parameters were determined by inoculating …

The role of probiotics, prebiotics, and human milk oligosaccharides in infant formulae
… of age (Li et al., 2005). Probiotics and/or prebiotics are increasingly supplemented in infant formulae and are generally regarded as safe in healthy infants without concern for growth or adverse effects (Holscher et al., 2012a; Holscher et al., 2012b). Additionally, human milk …

Effects of Prebiotics on Gut Bacterial Communities and Healing of Induced Colitis in Mice
… mouse model using Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS), prebiotics inulin and oligofructose enriched inulin (OEI) were used as treatments to determine their effects on the gut microbial community, physiological healing process, and immune response in the mice after initial inflammation and before …

The Effect of Probiotics, Prebiotics, and Synbiotics on Indicators of Lactose Intolerance: A Systematic Review
… achieved via consumption of probiotics, prebiotics, or synbiotics in various forms. This systematic review examined 25 studies measuring outcomes of lactose intolerance in subjects given probiotic, prebiotic, or synbiotic treatments. Bacterial strains with the greatest degree of evidence …

The effects of prebiotics on the growth performance and gastrointestinal microflora modulation in oreochromis mossambicus in Hardap region, Namibia
… for example, the use of feed additives such as prebiotics, probiotics and synbiotics. This study aimed to investigate the prebiotic effect of dietary inulin and Termitomyces schimperi mushroom powder incorporated in fish feed on the growth performance and modulation of gastrointestinal …

Use Of Cryoprotectants, Prebiotics And Microencapsulation of Bacterial Cells in Improving the Viability of Probiotic Organisms in Freeze-Dried Yoghurt
… The effectiveness of adding cryoprotectants and prebiotics in improving the viability of the selected probiotic organisms was investigated. There was a 7% improvement in the viability of L. casei 1520 when cryoprotectant 'UnipectineTM RS 150' was added at 2.5% (w/v). The addition of the prebiotic …

The effects of potential dietary prebiotics and grain particle size on the growth performance and intestinal microflora of young poultry
… Also, short-term feeding of various potential prebiotics, especially those which contain some lactose, can beneficially influence cecal microbial populations in young chicks, particularly elevated levels of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli and decreased levels of E. coli, even when given to the …

The Influence of Prebiotics, Probiotics, and Exposure to an Opportunistic Pathogen on the Intestinal Microbiome of White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei)
Prebiotics and probiotics, proposed alternatives to antibiotics in shrimp aquaculture, are reported to improve growth parameters, promote disease resistance, and influence the gut microbial community. This study aimed to investigate the influence of prebiotic- or probiotic-coated feed and/or …

Prebiotics and Probiotics: Impact on Gut Microbial Populations, Nutrient Digestibilities, Fecal Protein Catabolite Concentrations, and Immune Function of Humans and Dogs
These experiments demonstrated that prebiotic and (or) probiotic supplementation seems to improve indices associated with gut health of humans and dogs. However, caution should be taken, as LAC supplementation did result in some negative effects (e.g., increased fecal putrefactive compounds). …

Colonization dynamics of oro-gastrointestinal microbes critical to infant health
… bovine and soy-based 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 …

The nutritional effects of selected algae, prebiotics and commercial herbal feed additives on the growth rate and health of juvenile spotted grunter, Pomadasys commersonnii (Pisces: Haemulidae)
In the aquaculture of fish and shrimps, diets generally contain high levels of fish meal. Fish meal is a nutrient rich feed that contains essential amino acids and fatty acids, which are required to maintain optimum growth and health of an animal. It is traditionally used in aquaculture to promote …

Evaluating substrate utilisation to target newly identified health-promoting gut bacteria
… over recent decades. Such substrates can include prebiotics, which promote growth in a targeted manner, but prebiotics can also be combined with other less target-specific nutrients to further enhance the growth of these targets. This field has continued to advance in recent years and has also …

Production d'oligosaccharides à partir de gomme de caroube
… framework of this study is the discovery of prebiotics and more specifically the production of oligosaccharides by enzymatic hydrolysis of locust bean gum. These, though not much studied, could present a rich prebiotics potential. The aim of this work was the purification of beta-mannanases …

Effects of early nutrition on the wnt and bone morphogenic protein pathways in the developing intestine
… currently being added to infant formula is prebiotics. Prebiotics are non-digestible food ingredients that beneficially affect the host by selectively stimulating the growth of specific healthful bacteria in the colon. It is speculated that prebiotics replicate the activity of breast milk …

Effects of prebiotic fibre diets on rat mucosal intestinal and systemic immunity and in vitro mechanistic analysis of anti-inflammatory effects of lactobacillus strains on rat and human intestinal epithelial cells
Probiotics and prebiotics are emerging household terms, whose claimed health benefits share commonality. Their attributed health benefits include the production or induction of short chain fatty acids, maintaining bowel function, building colonization resistance (against pathogens) and treating …

From youth to old age: therapeutic potential of microbiota interventions in the gut-brain-axis
… in the brain, across a range of treatments from prebiotics to polyphenols. We highlight the physiological differences between the various age groups. Intestinal permeability and neuronal plasticity were the only modifiable parameters in the elderly. In younger animal prebiotics impact metabolism …
