Effect of Non-Starch Polysaccharide Calcium Pectate on the Growth and Colonization of Normal and Pathogenic Microflora In Vitro

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

In vitro experiments showed that calcium pectate added to the culture medium produces a dose-dependent prebiotic effect on lacto-and bifidobacteria cultures and on non-pathogenic strain of Escherichia coli. Calcium pectate produced a pronounced bacteriostatic effect on Candida albicans strain; the effects was more pronounced in a concentration of 4%.
