2. 1. Systems-level characterization of probiotic bifidobacteria - Towards rational optimization of industrial production

   Author : Marie Schöpping; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; genome-scale metabolic modeling; stability; robustness; industrial manufacturing; bifidobacteria; stress-associated genes; probiotics; nutritional requirement; interspecies variations;

   Abstract : Probiotic Bifidobacterium strains contribute to a healthy gut microbiota of their hosts. Increasing public awareness of this positive effect has resulted in a growing demand for these microorganisms. READ MORE

4. 2. Lactobacillus reuteri in health and disease

   Author : Gabriela Sinkiewicz; Malmö högskola; []
   Keywords : breast milk; lactobacilli; Lactobacillus reuteri; probiotics; Bifidobacteria; clostridium; faeces; Gingivitis; oral health;

   Abstract : People have exploited fermentation by lactobacilli for centuries as a means of preparing and preserving foods. Several different bacterial species are today used as probiotic bacteria in different products both for human and animal applications. READ MORE

5. 3. Microbial Risks in Surface Water Sources

   Author : Johan Åström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface water; Bifidobacteria; Microbial source tracking; Cryptosporidium.; QMRA; Flow-weighted sampling; Pathogens; Bacteroidales; Stochastic modelling; qPCR;

   Abstract : Microbial risks need to be properly handled for the provision of healthy drinking water. The mitigation of pathogens in the water source lowers the risk for infection associated with nominal and suboptimal drinking water treatment. READ MORE

6. 4. Prebiotic Oligosaccharides from Xylan: Heat Pretreatment, Xylanase Hydrolysis, Utilization by Potential Probiotics and Evaluation in a Mouse Study

   Author : Peter Falck; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; arabinoxylan; xylooligosaccharides; arabinoxylooligosaccharides; Bifidobacterium; Lactobacillus;

   Abstract : Modulation of the gut microbiota with prebiotic oligosaccharides from partially hydrolyzed xylans can be part of the solution for reducing the occurrence of many health problems such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Prebiotics are carbohydrates that selectively stimulate health beneficial bacteria in the colon, restoring homeostasis to the gut environment. READ MORE

7. 5. lntestinal microenvironment, epithelial barrier interactions and human milk oligosaccharide supplementation in irritable bowel syndrome

   Author : Cristina Iribarren; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; colonoids; epithelium; gut microbiota-host interaction; human milk oligosaccharides; intestinal milieu; irritable bowel syndrome; metabolites; microbiota; mucosal border;

   Abstract : Alterations of the microbiota-host interactions at the mucosal border may be of importance in symptom generation in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a disorder of gut-brain interaction. Hence, microbiota-targeted interventions may benefit some patients by beneficially modulating the intestinal microenvironment. READ MORE
