Degradation of fibres from fruit by-products allows selective modulation of the gut bacteria in an in vitro model of the proximal colon
The potential prebiotic effect of fibres (alcohol insoluble solids fractions) from fruit by-products – orange bagasses and passion fruit peels – and their degradation by human gut microbiota was tested in an in vitro colon system. Standard medium and inulin were used as controls. Orange bagasses (A-...
