Probiotics are exploited for adjuvant treatment in IBS, but reliable guidance selecting the appropriate probiotic to adopt different forms of IBS is lacking. We aimed identify markers recognizing non-constipated (NC) patients that may show significant clinical improvements upon with strain Lacticaseibacillus paracasei DG (LDG). To this purpose, we performed a post-hoc analysis samples collected during multicenter, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial which NC-IBS were...

Reportedly, Western-type diets may induce the loss of key microbial taxa within gastrointestinal microbiota, promoting onset noncommunicable diseases. It was hypothesized that consumption raw vegetables could contribute to maintenance intestinal community structure. In this context, we explored bacteria associated with commercial rocket salads produced through different farming practices: traditional (conventional, organic, and integrated) vertical farming. Viable counts mesophilic lactic...

It was theorized that modernization and the decline in harmless microbial populations associated with food have altered gut microbiota, impacting host metabolism immunity. Western dietary patterns, characterized by processed foods preservation methods, may significantly reduce population food. To mitigate consequences of bacterial deprivation, integration these diets fermented is commonly proposed. Nonetheless, non-fermented consumed raw also be an important source viable cells for human...

Abstract In this study we investigated how cell origin could affect the efficacy of an antimicrobial treatment (mild heating combined with terpenoids) in Listeria monocytogenes Scott A, considering cells from: 1. single colony, 2. glycerol stock, 3. cold adapted culture, and 4. fresh culture stationary phase. After treatment, culturability on BHI medium viability assessed by flow cytometry were evaluated. Our results showed that significantly impacted L. towards treatment. The mild heat or...
