Transformation of plant isoflavones into bioactive isoflavones by lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria

Isoflavones are usually found in nature in their glycosilated or methylated forms, and should be hydrolysed to become bioavailable and physiologically active. The deglycosylation of isoflavone C-glycosides and O-glycosides and the demethylase activity were studied in a selection of lactic acid bacte...
