We compared in vitro the response of both healthy and celiac microbiota by exposing faecal samples to digested Gluten Friendly™ bread, and a control bread. The effects on the major groups of microbiota were monitored over 48 hour incubations. Gluten Friendly™ bread prolonged the survival of Lactobacillus Acidophilus and exerted an antibacterial effect towards Staphilococcus Aureus and Salmonella Typhimurium.
