The Application of Metagenomics to Study Microbial Communities and Develop Desirable Traits in Fermented Foods

Foods, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 11(20), P. 3297 - 3297

Published: Oct. 21, 2022

The microbial communities present within fermented foods are diverse and dynamic, producing a variety of metabolites responsible for the fermentation processes, imparting characteristic organoleptic qualities health-promoting traits, maintaining microbiological safety foods. In this context, it is crucial to study these characterise production processes involved. High Throughput Sequencing (HTS)-based methods such as metagenomics enable community studies through amplicon shotgun sequencing approaches. As field constantly develops, technologies becoming more accessible, affordable accurate with further shift from short read long being observed. Metagenomics enjoying wide-spread application in food recent years also employed concert synthetic biology techniques help tackle problems large amounts waste generated sector.

Impact of structurally diverse polysaccharides on colonic mucin O-glycosylation and gut microbiota

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 9(1)

Published: Dec. 11, 2023

Abstract Understanding how dietary polysaccharides affect mucin O -glycosylation and gut microbiota could provide various nutrition-based treatments. Here, the -glycan profile of colonic mucosa microbiome were investigated in C57BL/6J mice fed six structurally diverse a mixture fibers. Dietary increased total -glycans, mainly by stimulating neutral glycans. Highly branched arabinogalactan promoted terminally fucosylated core 1 -glycans; whereas linear polysaccharides, including pectin, konjac glucomannan, inulin, fiber mixture, favored di-fucosylated -glycans. The last three also lowered level sulfated -glycans sialylated mono-fucosylated Varied monosaccharide composition mixed had synergistic beneficial effect, boosting glycans, decreasing acidic microbial richness diversity. containing arabinose sulfate groups enhanced relative abundances Akkermansia Muribaculaceae , respectively. present comparison reveals relationship between polysaccharide structure, composition, intestinal microorganisms.

Exploring the Prebiotic Potentials of Hydrolyzed Pectins: Mechanisms of Action and Gut Microbiota Modulation

Nutrients, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(21), P. 3689 - 3689

Published: Oct. 29, 2024

The intestinal microbiota is a complex ecosystem where the microbial community (including bacteria) can metabolize available substrates via metabolic pathways specific to each species, often related in symbiotic relations. As consequence of using and growth, beneficial metabolites be produced. When this reflects health benefits for host, these categorized as prebiotics. Given that most prebiotic candidates must have low molecular weight further metabolized by microbiota, role preliminary biological pretreatment crucial. To provide proper strategy could decrease complexity polysaccharides reduce levels polymerization target molecules, driving better solubilization consequent use bacteria. high pectin degraded (partially depolymerized), its solubility increases, thereby improving utilization gut microbiota. With regards application, prebiotics well-documented advantages when applied food additives, they improve enhance drug effects, all shown vitro, vivo, clinical trials. In review, we aim systematic evidence mechanisms action modulation pectin-derived oligosaccharides produced decreasing overall after physical and/or chemical treatments compare with other types
