Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study aimed to compare the in vivo prebiotic properties of bread produced by traditional breadmaking techniques with that made using a modern breadmaking method on Irritable Bowel Syndrome-like symptoms in patients with quiescent Ulcerative Colitis. The expected outcome of the differential effects was a change in the faecal microbiome composition, which may indicate changes in the mucosa-associated microbiota.
