Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Googled it and:

Gut microbiota: PAs can improve the diversity of gut microbes, and can increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria while decreasing the abundance of harmful bacteria.

Fecal odor: PAs can reduce the level of putrefactive substances in the feces, which can reduce fecal odor.

Fecal pH: PAs can decrease fecal pH.

Antimicrobial activity: PAs can have an antimicrobial effect on potentially pathogenic bacteria.

Prebiotic effect: PAs can have a prebiotic effect on beneficial bacteria.

Looks like I'm buying some seeded grapes for science!
