Effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus 43121 and a mixture of lactobacillus casei and bifidobacterium longum on the serum cholesterol level and fecal sterol excretion in hypercholesterolemia-induced pigs
The hypocholesterolemic effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus 43121 (43121) and a mixture of Lactobacillus casei and Bifidobacterium longum (MIX) were studied in hypercholesterolemia-induced pigs. Serum total cholesterol was decreased by supplementation of either 43121 or MIX, although, high-density...

Zusammenfassung: | The hypocholesterolemic effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus 43121 (43121) and a mixture of Lactobacillus casei and Bifidobacterium longum (MIX) were studied in hypercholesterolemia-induced pigs. Serum total cholesterol was decreased by supplementation of either 43121 or MIX, although, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was not changed. The -hypocholesterolemic effect of 43121 and MIX was mainly due to bile acid dehydroxylation, this effect being supplementation-time dependent. |
