Bifidobacterium

Bifidobacterium is a genus of gram-positive, nonmotile, often branched anaerobic bacteria.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Bifidobacterium

Breast milk

Breast milk (sometimes spelled as breastmilk) or mother's milk is milk produced by the mammary glands in the breast of human females.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Breast milk

Campylobacter jejuni

Campylobacter jejuni is a species of pathogenic bacteria that is commonly associated with poultry, and is also often found in animal feces.

Fucose

Fucose is a hexose deoxy sugar with the chemical formula C6H12O5.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Fucose

Galactose

Galactose (galacto- + -ose, "milk sugar"), sometimes abbreviated Gal, is a monosaccharide sugar that is about as sweet as glucose, and about 65% as sweet as sucrose.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Galactose

Glucose

Glucose is a sugar with the molecular formula.

Helicobacter pylori

Helicobacter pylori, previously known as Campylobacter pylori, is a gram-negative, flagellated, helical bacterium.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Helicobacter pylori

Human milk oligosaccharide

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), also known as human milk glycans, are short polymers of simple sugars that can be found in high concentrations in human breast milk. 2'-Fucosyllactose and human milk oligosaccharide are oligosaccharides.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Human milk oligosaccharide

Infection

An infection is the invasion of tissues by pathogens, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to the infectious agent and the toxins they produce.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Infection

Oligosaccharide

An oligosaccharide is a saccharide polymer containing a small number (typically three to ten) of monosaccharides (simple sugars). 2'-Fucosyllactose and oligosaccharide are oligosaccharides.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Oligosaccharide

Pathogen

In biology, a pathogen (πάθος, "suffering", "passion" and -γενής, "producer of"), in the oldest and broadest sense, is any organism or agent that can produce disease.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Pathogen

Salmonella enterica

Salmonella enterica (formerly Salmonella choleraesuis) is a rod-shaped, flagellate, facultative anaerobic, Gram-negative bacterium and a species of the genus Salmonella.

See 2'-Fucosyllactose and Salmonella enterica

Trisaccharide

Trisaccharides are oligosaccharides composed of three monosaccharides with two glycosidic bonds connecting them.
