Effects of Dietary Glucose, Fructose, and Monosaccharide-to-Lard Energy Ratios on Cecal Microbiota Composition and Ecological Organization in Rats
Background: Although dietary fat and carbohydrates are major determinants of gut microbiota composition, their interactive effects across changing dietary monosaccharide-to-lard energy ratios remain incompletely understood. This study descriptively examined treatment-level cecal microbiome profiles across dietary gradi...
