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.

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.
