Lactiplantibacillus plantarum peptides and probiotics from peanut butter enhance antimicrobial activity and gut microbiota modulation
Background Fermented plant matrices with probiotics show antimicrobial and gut health potential. Still, the quantitative links between peanut fermentation, peptide–probiotic synergy, digestive survival, and microbiota modulation remain unclear. Objective We optimized bioactive peptide production from reduced-fat (33%)...
