Maize Bran Particle Size Governs the Community Composition and Metabolic Output of Human Gut Microbiota in in vitro Fermentations

Differences in the chemical and physical properties of dietary fibers are increasingly known to exert effects on their fermentation by gut microbiota. Here, we demonstrate that maize bran particle size fractions show metabolic output and microbial community differences similar to those we previously...
