简要总结
Within the Denali study the effect of 3 weeks intervention with GOS on the abundance of Bifidobacterium in faecal samples will be investigated.
详细描述
This randomized, parallel, double-blinded intervention study of 6 weeks will include 88 females, who will consume GOS for three consecutive weeks. Faecal samples will be collected at several time points to measure microbiota composition.
