Effects of Synbiotic , , and Prebiotics on the Growth Stimulation of Beneficial Gut Microbiota.

The gut microbiota is a complex community of microorganisms that plays a vital role in maintaining overall health, and is comprised of and . The probiotic efficacy and safety of and for consumption were confirmed by experiments. The survival rate of the probiotics showed a significant decline in gut tract simulation; however, the survival rate was more than 50%.

Optimization of Mixed Inulin, Fructooligosaccharides, and Galactooligosaccharides as Prebiotics for Stimulation of Probiotics Growth and Function.

Prebiotics have become an important functional food because of their potential for modulating the gut microbiota and metabolic activities. However, different prebiotics can stimulate the growth of different probiotics. The optimization of prebiotics was focused on in this study in order to stimulate the representative probiotics' growth ( (previously ) and subsp.
