Probiotics and Prebiotics

Tomasik, Przemyslaw Jan, Tomasik, Piotr·2003·Cereal Chemistry

Abstract

Probiotics, bacteria from the genera Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, and yeast, Saccharomyces, as well as prebiotics belonging to the group of dietary fiber (inulin with low degree of polymerization, fructose‐derived oligosaccharides, and resistant starch) are natural factors useful in prophylaxis and therapy of several common diseases including some types of cancer. They are available commercially and can be introduced to produce so‐called functional food. Probiotics and prebiotics can be utilized either separately or jointly (as synbiotics or eubiotics). Mechanisms of both biotics are discussed. The role of cereals in probiosis is considered. Possibilities for extension of the uses of the original Chinese probiotic, chaw tofu, are also considered.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
