Polydextrose
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Polydextrose is an orally active prebiotic. Polydextrose promotes the growth of Pediococcus pentosaceus ATCC 43200. Polydextrose reduces cholesterol and synergistically lowers blood sugar with Sitagliptin (HY-13749). Currently, it is mainly used in the research of diseases such as hyperlipidemia, type 2 diabetes, and postoperative iron deficiency anemia.

Biological Activity
Polydextrose (0.5%-1.5%; 24 h; pH 6.0, 35°C, 50-150 rpm) significantly promotes the growth of Pediococcus pentosaceus ATCC 43200 in MRS medium and increases the lactic acid yield[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Polydextrose (7.5%; p.o. via diets; 60-day administration period) increases cecal SCFAs concentration (acetate by 198.4%), decreases cecal pH, and increases hemoglobin (29.2%) and hematocrit (55.8%) in rats undergoing partial gastrectomy (Billroth II procedure + vagotomy)[4]
Polydextrose (0.25 g/day; p.o.; daily; 6 weeks) combined with Sitagliptin (HY-13749) significantly reduces the area under the curve of the oral glucose tolerance test (by 28%) and glycaemia in high-fat diet-induced diabetic mice, and increases portal vein GLP-1 concentration[5].
