✦ Synopsis


The disaccharide lactulosc (/?-D-galactopyranosyl-( l-4)-D-fructofuranose) is thought to be poorly hydrol i d by intestinal enzymes but is broken down by microorganisms in the colon. Thus lactulose shares with pectin similar characteristics [I]. Lactulose is used in the food industry and in the treatment of constipation.

There is preliminary evidence that dietary lactulose (5%, w/w) causes increased conantrations of serum and h e r cholesterol in rats when compared with pectin [2]. This paper describes dose-response relatioriships between dietary lactulose and cholesterol in either serum or liver.

## Abstract The influence of vitamin B~6~ on fatty acids content in serum and liver of rats receiving low protein diets was studied. Addition of B~6~ decreased linoleic acid (LA) and increased α‐linolenic acid (ALA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in serum of rats fed a protein‐deficient diet (9% en
