In-vitro assessment of the effects of dietary fibers on microbial fermentation and communities from large intestinal digesta of pigs
2011-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Dietary fibers (oat β-glucan, flaxseed gum, and fenugreek gum) can be fermented to short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in batch cultures by pig intestinal digesta. Lactate in the β-glucan-grown cultures had the highest level among SCFAs produced, whereas flaxseed or fenugreek gum-containing cultures generated a significant amount of acetate, propionate and butyrate over three subcultures tested (p < 0.05). Denatur...
