Fructans with Varying Degree of Polymerization Enhance the Selective Growth of <i>Bifidobacterium animalis</i> subsp. <i>lactis</i> BB-12 in the Human Gut Microbiome In Vitro

Fructans with Varying Degree of Polymerization Enhance the Selective Growth of <i>Bifidobacterium animalis</i> subsp. <i>lactis</i> BB-12 in the Human Gut Microbiome In Vitro

Synbiotics aim to improve gastrointestinal health by combining pre- and probiotics. This study evaluated combinations of <i>Bifidobacterium animalis</i> subsp. <i>lactis</i> BB-12 with seven fructans: oligofructoses (OF1-OF2; low degree of polymerization (DP)), inulins (IN1-I...
