The major actions of undigested carbohydrates, such as non-starch polysaccharides and resistant starch, on the physiology of man are related to colonic fermentation. It is very difficult to study fermentation in vivo. In vitro models are often used but these models differ in almost every aspect even
## Abstract A range of probiotic and other intestinal bacteria were examined for their ability to ferment the dietary fibre carbohydrates Ξ²βglucan, xylan, xyloβoligosaccharides (XOS) and arabinoxylan. Ξ²βGlucan was fermented by __Bacteroides__ spp and __Clostridium beijerinckii__ but was not ferment
