Metagenomic insights into the effects of oligosaccharides on the microbial composition of cecal contents in constipated mice

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different kinds of oligosaccharides on cecal microbiota. These oligosaccharides were a fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) formulation consisting of 95% FOS (FOS95), a galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) formulation consisting of 90% GOS (GOS90), and an isomal...
