Evaluating the prebiotic effect of oligosaccharides on gut microbiome wellness using in vitro fecal fermentation

Abstract We previously proposed the Gut Microbiome Wellness Index (GMWI), a predictor of disease presence based on a gut microbiome taxonomic profile. As an application of this index for food science research, we applied GMWI as a quantitative tool for measuring the prebiotic effect of oligosacchari...
