Effect of prebiotics and probiotics on the activity of disaccharidase in the small intestinal mucosa. *CELL (5% of cellulose), CELPRO (5% of cellulose + 1% of probiotics), OATS (5% of oatmeal), and OATPRO (5% of oatmeal + 1% of probiotics) groups. Values indicate mean ± SD (n = 5). a,bMean values in each panel with no common superscript differ significantly among the treatment groups (p < 0.05). The p values of maltase indicated as follows: PRE (p = 0.11), PRO (p = 0.01), and PRE*PRO (p = 0.07). The p values of sucrase indicated as follows: PRE (p = 0.32), PRO (p = 0.01), and PRE*PRO (p = 0.03). The p values of lactase indicated as follows: PRE (p = 0.07), PRO (p = 0.03), and PRE*PRO (p = 0.01)
