| Popis: | Significant increases in the amounts of short-chain fatty acids and lactate, and in numbers of bifidobacteria were observed in the cecum of curdlan (CD) -fed rats as compared with those of cellulose-fed ones. The in vitro proliferation of 5 species of bifidobacteria was markedly increased in the cultures containing the supernatant obtained from the cecal contents of CD-fed rats. These findings suggest that bifidus factors have been produced in the cecum of CD-fed rats. |
