Journal ArticleDOI

Human intestinal microbiota and healthy ageing

TL;DR: This mini-review will focus on the recent findings on the gut microbiota of the elderly and on the potential benefits of probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of age and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on human intestinal microbiota composition

TL;DR: The microbiota of a previously well-defined group of elderly subjects aged between 70 and 85 years were further compared with young adults by two DNA-based techniques: percentage guanine+cytosine (%G+C) profiling and 16S rDNA sequencing, and remarkable changes in microbiota were described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prebiotics and other microbial substrates for gut functionality.

TL;DR: This work has shown that modulation of the intestinal microbiota by exogenous and endogenous substrates can be expected to improve various physiological functions of the body, not just those in the intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polydextrose, Lactitol, and Fructo-Oligosaccharide Fermentation by Colonic Bacteria in a Three-Stage Continuous Culture System

TL;DR: In vitro fermentations were carried out by using a model of the human colon to simulate microbial activities of lower gut bacteria to evaluate bacterial populations (and their metabolic products) under the effects of various fermentable substrates.
