Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2779963
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Pullulan and dextran promote the growth of bifid bacteria in human and animals. Such promotion is effective in maintaining and improving health and beauty, as well as in preventing and/or treating diseases such as geriatric diseases, hyperammonemia and hepatic encephalopathy. The presence of certain oligosaccharide(s) such as lactulose, raffinose, lactosucrose, isomaltooligosaccharide, fructooligosaccharide, galactooligosaccharide and xylooligosaccharide greatly enhances such promotion. Thus, pullulan and dextran are advantageously usable for or in health foods, pharmaceuticals, animal feeds and pet foods.
