  • Some species can metabolize five-carbon (pentose) sugars such as fructose , as well as alcohols and organic acids. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
  • AGA58 is an obligatory homofermentative where hexose sugars such as galactose, glucose, fructose, sucrose, mannose, N-acetyl glucosamine, maltose, trehalose are fermented to lactate thru glycolysis and no acid production from pentose sugars achieved due to lack of key enzyme namely phosphoketolase in pentose phosphate pathway. (sciencegate.app)
  • The high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of mono sugars revealed that EPS was composed of manouronic acid, glucuronic acid, xylose, and fructose at a molar ratio of 1.0:0.5:1.0:2.0, respectively. (springeropen.com)
  • They obtain their main source of carbon from hexose (six-carbon) sugars such as glucose , or disaccharides such as sucrose and maltose . (newworldencyclopedia.org)
  • In healthy subjects or patients with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes mellitus, various studies revealed that honey reduced blood glucose or was more tolerable than most common sugars or sweeteners. (ijbs.com)
  • Pre-biotics- Inulin IQ FOS (Fructooligosaccharides)- one of the best-known pre-biotics, FOS is known to support the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. (nwcnaturals.com)
  • In this review article, we highlight findings which demonstrate the beneficial or potential effects of honey in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), on the gut microbiota, in the liver, in the pancreas and how these effects could improve glycemic control and metabolic derangements. (ijbs.com)
  • A few years ago, there has been a growing awareness of the medical benefits of secondary metabolites extracted from marine microorganisms by microbial fermentation [ 1 , 2 ]. (springeropen.com)
  • To investigate host specificity, we used gnotobiotic Drosophila, microbial pulse-chase protocols, and microscopy to investigate the stability of different strains of bacteria in the fly gut. (bvsalud.org)
  • In microbial ecology, our remote window into the ecology of microorganisms is through the lens of genome sequencing. (bvsalud.org)
  • Traits are inferred from genes and pathways representing energetic, resource acquisition, and stress tolerance mechanisms, while genome-wide signatures are used to infer composite, or life history, traits of microorganisms. (bvsalud.org)

  • The presence of microbiota in human and other metazoan guts has been critical for understanding the co-evolution between metazoans and bacteria. (wikipedia.org)
  • Their ability to ferment sugars has made them an integral component of human civilization: the yeast species Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in particular, has been used in the baking of leavened bread and the production of alcoholic beverages for thousands of years. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
  • Unlike bacteria , there are no known yeast species that grow only in the absence of oxygen (anaerobically). (newworldencyclopedia.org)
  • The gut is continuously invaded by diverse bacteria from the diet and the environment, yet microbiome composition is relatively stable over time for host species ranging from mammals to insects, suggesting host-specific factors may selectively maintain key species of bacteria. (bvsalud.org)
