TL;DR: Mechanistic insight is provided into how milk glycans enrich specific beneficial bacterial populations in infants and clues for enhancing enrichment of bifidobacterial populations in at risk populations - such as premature infants are revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lactobacillus Adhesion to Mucus
TL;DR: Understanding the nature of mucus-microbe interactions could be the key to elucidating the mechanisms of probiotic adhesion within the host.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is found that addition of excess thiols released protein-thiol-bound ITC, but that the microbiome supports only poor hydrolysis unless exposed to dietary glucosinolates for a period of days, which explains why 3–5 servings of brassica vegetables may provide health effects, even if they are cooked.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial behavior of phage endolysin PlyP100 and its synergy with nisin to control Listeria monocytogenes in Queso Fresco
TL;DR: The results support the use of PlyP100 combined with nisin as an efficient L.monocytogenes control measure in QF and show a strong synergy inQF with non-enumerable levels of L. monocyTogenes after 4 weeks of refrigerated storage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hot topic: Antilisterial activity by endolysin PlyP100 in fresh cheese.
TL;DR: P100 demonstrates considerable promise for preventing the propagation of L. monocytogenes in fresh cheeses, and this novel preservation method could help safeguard consumer health and the market expansion of an otherwise high-risk food with few other viable preservatives.
