Impact of Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide digestion products on gut microbiota in an in vitro fermentation model
This study uses in vitro digestion and fecal fermentation models combined with 16S rRNA gene sequencing to analyze how digested Hericium erinaceus polysaccharides modulate the composition of human gut microbiota. The goal is to evaluate their prebiotic potential and provide a mechanistic basis for developing functional foods aimed at improving gut health.
