SUGAR CATABOLISM IN BIFIDOBACTERIA
Abstract
En la actualidad, hay un gran interés en el estudio de las bacterias con actividad probiótica, especialmente en aquellos géneros que constituyen la flora interstinal, como los son los miembros del género Bifidobacterium. Sin embargo, para garantizar una administración acertada de bacterias probióticas, es necesario considerar los requisitos nutricionales y ambientales de estos microorganismos, para ejercer su efecto probiótico. En bifidobacterias como en otros géneros de la flora intestinal, el catabolismo y la capacidad para generar productos antagónicos, depende de la actividad metabólica, como del catabolismo complejo de los carbohidratos y la actividad de la fosfoketolosa, y de las rutas de fermentación de los monosacáridos. Esta es una revisión bibliográfica acerca del catabolismo de los carbohidratos complejos en bifidobacterias y sus rutas de fermentación en el intestino
Palabras claves: bifidobacteria, probiotico, catabolismo, carbohidratos, fosfoketolasa
