Fecal microbiota composition affects in vitro fermentation of rye, oat, and wheat bread
New study published in Scientific Reports by Pirkola et.al: Fermentation of dietary fiber by gut microbes produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), but fermentation outcomes are affected by dietary fiber source and microbiota composition. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of two different fecal microbial compositions on in vitro fermentation of a standardized amount of oat, rye, and wheat breads. Two human fecal donors with different microbial community compo
