The putative effects of prebiotics as immunomodulatory agents

Nutritional impacts on fish mucosa: immunostimulants, pre- and probiotics

“…This aspect is a challenge with the use of probiotics because safety is a major concern in employing microbial intervention strategies both for the host and the associated organisms of its rearing environment. The promotion of these bacterial communities is considered a beneficial effect because the by-products they produce during the fermentation of prebiotics play a major role in improving host health (Choque-Delgado et al, 2011). Besides in human (Gibson and Roberfroid, 1995;Manning and Gibson, 2004;Rastall, 2004), the shifting of intestinal microbial communities particularly the dominance of Bifidobacterium spp.…”

Prebiotic Addition in Dairy Products

“…The excessive consumption of fats, especially saturated fats, surplus sugar and salt, and low consumption of RS and dietary fibers, have led to a raised incidence of chronic degenerative diseases, such as cardiovascular problems, cancer, diabetes, and obesity (Choque- Delgado et al, 2011). The excessive consumption of fats, especially saturated fats, surplus sugar and salt, and low consumption of RS and dietary fibers, have led to a raised incidence of chronic degenerative diseases, such as cardiovascular problems, cancer, diabetes, and obesity (Choque- Delgado et al, 2011).…”

“…The health-promoting effects of prebiotics include benefits to host nutrition, the growth inhibition of pathogens, and the promotion of beneficial microbiota (Choque- Delgado et al, 2011). The health-promoting effects of prebiotics include benefits to host nutrition, the growth inhibition of pathogens, and the promotion of beneficial microbiota (Choque- Delgado et al, 2011).…”

The Use of Synbiotics to Prevent IMNV and Vibrio harveyi Co-Infection in Litopenaeus vannamei

“…In mammals, the mechanism synbiotics begins with the metabolism of prebiotics by probiotics produce short-chain fatty acids/short chain fatty acids (SCFA). SCFA lowers intestinal pH in the colon, resulting in conditions that do not suit the needs of pathogenic bacteria (Delgado 2011). Nayak (2010 explained that the gut is an organ of a growing probiotics, the probiotics which are associated with lymphoid tissue that could activate the immune system (Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue [GALT]).…”
