Bacteria, however, can also provide some benefits, such as: · Production of micronutrients · Aiding metabolism or activation of medicines · Biotransformation of bile salts · Fermentation of indigestible polysaccharides · Prevention of luminal colonisation by pathogenic microorganisms What ...
The digestion of fats in animals is mainly in the upper part of the small intestine by the action of various enzymes and bile salts, which are hydrolyzed into glycerol, fatty acids, etc. Lipids are absorbed in two ways: triglycerides composed of medium- and short-chain fatty acids are absorbed after emulsification and enter the blood through the portal vein; ...
Bile acids can be divided into free bile acids and conjugated bile acids according to their structures. ...
The intestinal microecosystem is rich in various compounds secreted by the host, such as glycoproteins, saliva, gastric juice, bile salts and mucus, and consumes about 1.5 kg of amino acids, short-chain fatty acids and dietary fiber from the daily diet and microbial metabolites. ...
The metagenome analysis also reveals the relationship between significantly downregulated microbial genes related to primary/secondary bile acid metabolism and increasing amounts of total conjugated bile acids and unconjugated primary bile acids in non-obese subjects with significant fibrosis. ...
Bile salts play an important role in the digestion of lipids in vertebrates and are synthesized and conjugated to either glycine or taurine in the liver. Following secretion of bile salts into the small intestine, intestinal microbes are capable of deconjugating the glycine or taurine from the bile ...
In vitro studies were used to determine the effects of simulated gastric fluid (SGF) and bile salts on the viability of free and encapsulated phage. Free phage Felix O1 was found to be extremely sensitive to acidic environments and was not detectable after a 5-min exposure to pHs below 3.7. ...
