Dietary Fiber with Functional Properties Counteracts the Thwarting Effects of Copper Nanoparticles on the Microbial Enzymatic Activity and Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production in the Feces of Rats

Dietary Fiber with Functional Properties Counteracts the Thwarting Effects of Copper Nanoparticles on the Microbial Enzymatic Activity and Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production in the Feces of Rats

The present study aimed to scrutinize the hypothesis that the dietary addition of fiber with functional properties would prevent the thwarting effects of copper nanoparticles (Cu-NP) on fecal microbial metabolic activity. The Wistar rats were fed for 6 weeks with diets with two different contents of...
