We aimed to investigate the effect of enriched 3-prebiotic formula (including inulin, fructooligosaccharides, and galactooligosaccharides) on toddler gut health by measuring fecal microbiota. Our results revealed that the consumption of 3-prebiotic formula three times per day giving total intake of 1.8 g prebiotic ingredients significantly showed the increased number of probiotic Bifidobacteriu...

Phosphorylation is an essential chemical reaction for life. This reaction generates fundamental cell components, including building blocks for RNA and DNA, phospholipids for cell walls, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for energy storage. However, phosphorylation reactions are thermodynamically unfavorable in solution. Consequently, a long-standing question in prebiotic chemistry is how abiotic...

Abstract The most important factor determining human health is nutrition. Functional products containing many valuable ingredients contribute to the strengthening and maintenance of health. In this regard, over years, development technology for production such does not lose its relevance. authors selected composition ratio probiotic microflora in a complex starter culture functional fermented m...

effect of dietary prebiotic mannan oligosaccharide and β-1,3 glucan on growth performance, bodycomposition and immunity response of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) were investigated for asix week culture period. four feeding strategies were set, including feeding prebiotic-free dietcontinuously (control), feeding dietary prebiotic continuously (t1), feeding dietary alternately (oneweek preb...

In this study, we tested the hypothesis that milk oligosaccharides may contribute not only to selective growth of bifidobacteria, but also to their specific adhesive ability. Human milk oligosaccharides (3'sialyllactose and 6'sialyllactose) and a commercial prebiotic (Beneo Orafti P95; oligofructose) were assayed for their ability to promote adhesion of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis AT...

2΄-5΄-linked RNAs play important roles in many biological systems. In addition, the mixture of 2΄-5΄ and 3΄-5΄ phosphodiester bonds have emerged as a plausible structural element in prebiotic RNAs. Toward our mechanistic studies of RNA folding and structures with heterogeneous backbones, we recently reported two crystal structures of a decamer RNA duplex containing two and six 2΄-5΄-linkages, s...

The first systems of molecules having the properties of the living state presumably self-assembled from a mixture of organic compounds available on the prebiotic Earth. To carry out the polymer synthesis characteristic of all forms of life, such systems would require one or more sources of energy to activate monomers to be incorporated into polymers. Possible sources of energy for this process ...

We present a study of the reactions of the meteoritic mineral schreibersite (Fe,Ni)3P, focusing primarily on surface chemistry and prebiotic phosphorylation. In this work, a synthetic analogue of the mineral was synthesized by mixing stoichiometric proportions of elemental iron, nickel and phosphorus and heating in a tube furnace at 820 °C for approximately 235 hours under argon or under vacuum...
