DEVELOPMENT OF A USER WEB-INTERFACE FOR WORKING WITH THE INFORMATION DATABASE IN THE FIELD OF BIOTECHNOLOGY -PREBIOTICS, PROBIOTICS AND THEIR ACTIVITY-
Abstract
The growth in the value of functional nutrition for person?s life is due to a number of factors leading to poor health, such as unfavorable environmental conditions, urbanization of society, increased infectious load (bio-burden of pathogens) as a result contact with many people. Prebiotics are the most common food ingredients, along with probiotics used in functional foods. Since the second half of 1990, a huge amount of research has been carried out to prove the prebiotic properties of certain substances or compositions. Owing to both humanistic and economic considerations, such studies in the first stages are carried out on in vitro models, and at least five basic approaches are applied. However, the published data are currently systematized only in scientific reviews. The lack of an accessible and convenient information space, in particular, with the ability to compare the results of the studies conducted according to selected criteria, seems to be holding back not only the scientific, but also the practical development of this area. This article provides an updated and expanded version of the database named «ODRAP» containing information on the activity of prebiotics, as well as probiotics. A web-application interface of database has been created to make the access more convenient, that will allow the user who opened the web page familiarize with information on prebiotics and their activity, sort by the genus and species of bacteria, the name of the prebiotic and other parameters. The convenience of the web interface is that it allows you to access the database regardless of the platform on which the user works, as well as the ability to access from anywhere via the Internet at the URL at any time.
