Abstract:
A method of reducing human salmonellosis due to consumption of contaminated food. More in particular this application discloses a specific wheat bran fraction that reduces colonization of Salmonella bacteria in the gut of animals that are part of the human food chain. This disclosure indeed demonstrates that animals such as broilers that are given feed supplemented with the latter feed bran fraction—and are then infected with Salmonella—have a significantly reduced number of Salmonella bacteria in their cecum and shed less bacteria in their environment when compared to control animals that are given non-supplemented feed.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a mixture of bacteria belonging to at least six or seven different and specific bacterial species preferably for use in preventing or treating gastro-intestinal disorders. Preferably, the mixture of bacteria is grown together in a fermenter prior to administering the mixture to a subject in order to prevent or treat the disorder.
Abstract:
A method is provided for co-culturing viable cells and microorganisms for at least 48 hours in which an adhesion module is provided including a basal compartment and a luminal compartment separated by a semi-permeable membrane, and a continuous or semi-continuous flow of fresh medium is applied to the basal compartment.
