Potential prebiotic effects of tamarind seed polysaccharide: comparative evaluation of native <i>versus</i> enzymatic hydrolysates on the restoration of intestinal microbiota in clindamycin‐treated mice
These findings highlight the critical role of molecular weight in determining prebiotic efficacy, offering insights into the rational design of structure-function optimized polysaccharide-based therapeutics to combat antibiotic-associated dysbiosis. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.
