Prebiotic and synbiotic effects on rats fed malted barley with selected bacteria strains.

Zhong, Yadong LU and Nyman, Margareta LU (2014) In Food & Nutrition Research 58(Online 6 October 2014).
Abstract
Butyric acid, one of the key products formed when β-glucans are degraded by the microbiota in the colon, has been proposed to be important for colonic health. Glutamine bound to the fibre may have similar effects once it has been liberated from the fibre in the colon. Both β-glucans and glutamine are found in high amounts in malted barley. Lactobacillus rhamnosus together with malt has been shown to increase the formation of butyric acid further in rats.
