therapeutic action: modulation of gut microbiota composition

Untargeted metabolomics as a tool to assess the impact of dietary approaches on pig gut health: a review

This review examines how different types of food and feed additives affect the chemical compounds in pig digestive systems. By analyzing thousands of tiny molecules in pig samples using advanced laboratory techniques, researchers can understand which dietary approaches help pigs maintain healthy guts and resist disease. The study shows that adjusting the levels of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in pig feed can influence beneficial bacteria and protective compounds in their intestines.

Exo- and Endo-1,5-α-L-Arabinanases and Prebiotic Arabino-Oligosaccharides Production

This review explores arabino-oligosaccharides (AOS), special sugar compounds that act as prebiotics to feed beneficial gut bacteria. Scientists use enzymes called arabinanases to produce these AOS from plant material, particularly from arabinan found in sugar beets. Different types of these enzymes create different AOS products with varying health benefits, making them promising ingredients for functional foods and supplements that support digestive health.
