Evaluation of inter‐individual differences in gut bacterial isoflavone bioactivation in humans by PCR‐based targeting of genes involved in equol formation

Aim To identify human subjects harbouring intestinal bacteria that bioactivate daidzein to equol using a targeted PCR‐based approach. Methods and Results In a pilot study including 17 human subjects, equol formation was determined in faecal slurries. In parallel, faecal DNA was amplified by PCR usin...
