The effect of inulin-propionate ester on the gut microbiota. Bacterial concentrations expressed in Log10 cells/mL culture fluid enumerated using fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) targeting (A) Bifidobacterium spp (Bif164), (B) Bacteroides/Prevotella (Bac303), (C) Atopobium cluster (Ato291), (D) Lactobacillus/Enterococcus (Lab158), (E) Clostridium histolyticum (Chis150) and (F) Eubacterium rectale/Clostridium coccoides (Erec482) at 0 h, 10 h, 24 h, 34 h and 48 h anaerobic, pH controlled faecal batch culture fermentation with control (no substrate), inulin-control and inulin-propionate ester. Data are presented as mean±SEM (n=3), *<0.05, †<0.001, ‡<0.0001 with respect to the 0 h sample.
