The source of fermentable carbohydrates influences the in vitro protein synthesis by colonic bacteria isolated from pigs
Two in vitro experiments were carried out to quantify the incorporation of nitrogen (N) by pig colonic bacteria during the fermentation of dietary fibre, including non-starch polysaccharides and resistant starch. In the first experiment, five purified carbohydrates were used: starch (S), cellulose (...
