| Description | 1-Kestose shows significant anti-hydroxyl radical potential. 1-Kestose can promote intestinal Lactobacillus number, and influence the microorganisms as well as the intestinal and systemic immune responses. |
| In vivo | 1-kestose, which is the smallest component of FOS, on F. prausnitzii in the gut of humans. 1-kestose has impressive potential as a new prebiotic targeting F. prausnitzii, a next-generation probiotic strain, as well as bifidobacteria. |
