Presentation Transcript

  1. Novel Technologies to assess Gut Health Claims for Carbohydrates Subthema: MicrobiotaNaam trekker: Hauke SmidtAffiliatie: Wageningen UniversiteitContactgegevens: hauke.smidt@wur.nl

  2. Key aims • Characterize microbial networks responsible for fibre fermentation • Track place & products of fermentation • Identify carbohydrates that stimulate specific populations and products (e.g. butyrate producers) • Effect of carbohydrates on microbial determinants of functionality (e.g. surface decoration) • Personalized ingredients - Differences between individuals/enterotypes?

  3. Key technologies needed • HTP functional microbiomics approaches for whole microbiota & key populations • Stable isotope-based identification of fermentative microbial networks • HTP in vitro screening capacity • Carbohydrate metabolite profiling in intestinal samples

  4. Which microbes are there? What are the microbes doing? What is the genetic potential?
