FERMENTATION BY Lactobacillus paracasei OF GALACTOOLIGOSACCHARIDES AND LOW-MOLECULAR-WEIGHT CARBOHYDRATES EXTRACTED FROM SQUASH (Curcubita maxima) AND LUPIN (Lupinus albus) SEEDS

The in vitro prebiotic activity of galactooligosaccharides (GOS) and low-molecular-weight carbohydrates (LMWC) extracted from lupin and squash seeds on the growth of Lactobacillus paracasei BGP1 was studied. To this end, the change in cell density after 24 h of L. paracasei growth on 1% (w/v) glucos...
