Interindividual variability in the human metabolism of ellagic acid: Contribution of Gordonibacter to urolithin production

Interindividual variability in the human metabolism of ellagic acid: Contribution of Gordonibacter to urolithin production

The contribution of Gordonibacter to the different abilities, both qualitative and quantitative, of individuals to transform dietary ellagic acid into anti-inflammatory urolithins was investigated. A specific and suitable q-PCR system was developed for the detection and quantification of Gordonibact...
