Microbial diversity analysis on gut microbiota
Gut microbiota plays an important role in maintaining human health, regulating the immune system, and affecting metabolic processes. Dysbiosis of gut microbiota is related to the occurrence and development of various infectious diseases. Lactoferrin has been found to increase probiotics and decrease pathogenic bacteria in disease models, benefiting the regulation of intestinal flora. Whether its broad-spectrum antimicrobial effect has an effect on the normal intestinal flora has rarely been reported. Therefore, this paper investigates the effect of lactoferrin on normal intestinal flora to provide a scientific basis for the development and application of lactoferrin.
