Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis GCL2505 (B. lactis GCL2505) is able to survive passage through the intestines and proliferate. The daily dynamics of the intestinal bifidobacteria following ingestion of probiotics are not yet clear. Moreover, the effects of long-term ingestion of probiotics on the intestinal microbiota have not been well studied. Two experiments were performed in the pres...

conclusions although carbohydrate fermentation patterns specified these three isolates as b. infantis, b. bifidum, and b. longum, the molecular results did not confirm b. longum, which is still also controversial in the literature. overall, our results demonstrated that kashk-e zard is a rich potential source of probiotic bacteria and further investigations should be undertaken. results twelve ...

The intestinal microbiota has increasingly been shown to have a vital role in various aspects of human health. Indeed, several studies have linked alterations in the gut microbiota with the development of different diseases. Among the vast gut bacterial community, Bifidobacterium is a genus which dominates the intestine of healthy breast-fed infants whereas in adulthood the levels are lower but...

Human milk contains approximately 200 complex oligosaccharides believed to stimulate the growth and establishment of a protective microbiota in the infant gut. The lack of scalable analytical techniques has hindered the measurement of bacterial metabolism of these and other complex prebiotic oligosaccharides. An in vitro, multi-strain, assay capable of measuring kinetics of bacterial growth and...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the small intestine that is induced by dietary wheat gluten proteins (gliadins) in genetically predisposed individuals. The overgrowth of potentially pathogenic bacteria and infections has been suggested to contribute to CD pathogenesis. We aimed to study the effects of gliadin and various intestinal bacterial strains...

Bağırsak mikrobiyotasındaki bir dengesizlik, kedilerdeki kronik enteropatide olduğu gibi gastrointestinal sistemdeki inflamasyon oluşumu için hazırlayıcı faktör olarak hizmet ettiği tespit edilmiştir. Probiyotik uygulamasının rahatsızlıkları azaltabileceği varsayımı göz önüne alındığında, ülkemizde enteropatili kedilerde rektal yoldan etkileri hiç araştırılmamıştır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmanın ama...

The aim of this study was to determine the suitability of different doses (0, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2%) of coffee extract on fermentation and survival of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum in milk and yoghurt. The produced samples were examined in terms of pH, acidity and microbial count during incubation period and permanence. The number of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacte...

Chicory plant (Cichorium intybus) belongs to Asteraceae family and contains flavonoids. This research carried out in order to evaluate the effect of chicory plant on the activities of bifidobacterium bifidum and lactobacillus acidophilus. Four containers containing a liter of 1.5 % sterilized skim milk were selected as four group in order to produce milk cont...
