Long chain arabinoxylans shift the mucosa-associated microbiota in the proximal colon of the simulator of the human intestinal microbial ecosystem (M-SHIME)

Prebiotic compounds aim at improving human health by targeting beneficial gut microbes. We used a dynamic in vitro model of the human digestive tract (M-SHIME®) to study the modulatory effects of long-chain arabinoxylans (LC-AX) towards luminal and mucosal microbiota. Two doses (3 and 6 g/L) of LC-A...
