L47 and inulin affect colon and liver inflammation in piglets challenged by enterotoxigenic through regulating gut microbiota.

Introduction: Infection by pathogenic bacteria during weaning is a common cause of diarrhea and intestinal inflammation in piglets. Supplementing the diet with synbiotics is beneficial for animal health. The strain of L47 (L47) isolated in our lab exhibited good probiotic properties when combined with inulin.

Combination of fermentation and enzymolysis enhances bioactive components and function of de-oiled rice bran.

Background: De-oiled rice bran (DORB), a substantial yet underutilized byproduct of rice processing, boasts a rich composition of active ingredients but suffers from limited application. Previous studies have indicated that enzymatic or fermentation treatments enhanced these active components. In this study, lactobacilli and complex enzymes were employed to co-treat DORB, involving the determination of the changes in active components and functionalities of DORB extract (DORBE) before and after this treatment.

Palm Kernel Cake Extracts Obtained from the Combination of Bacterial Fermentation and Enzymic Hydrolysis Promote Swine Small Intestine IPEC-J2 Cell Proliferation and Alleviate LPS-Induced Inflammation In Vitro.

Co-fermentation with bacteria and enzymes can reduce sugar content in palm kernel cake (PKC); however, the chemical changes and their effects on cell functionality are unclear. This study investigated the active components in pre-treated PKC extracts and their effects on pig small intestine IPEC-J2 cell proliferation and LPS-induced inflammation. The extracts contained 60.
