The Binding Of Bifidobacterium Pseudocatenulatum G4 Tomutagenic/Carcinogenic Heterocyclic Aromatic Aminesin An In Vitro Study

Consumption of probiotic microorganisms has been associated with decreased risk of colon cancer and reported to have antimutagenic/anticarcinogenic properties. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) existing in the colon may exert an anticarcinogenic action, but the mechanism is still poorly understood. One...
