L'acide ellagique de Geranium nepalense, un extrait contenant un triterpène venant de Zityphi fractus, une protéine nommée mutastéine de Aspergillus terreus ont aussi été testés [...]. Mais ces inhibiteurs pourraient avoir aussi un spectre d'activités contre des glycosyltransférases d'espèces étrangères à la plaque. Seule la mutastéine pourrait, peut-être, être utilisée dans un dentifrice commercial. 2, record 1, French, - mutast%C3%A9ine

Ready and colleagues have shown that unlike wheat, oat bran did not affect fecal concentrations of secondary bile acids and, in fact brought about an increase in both total and secodary bile acid excretion when fed to human subjects for 5 weeks. This could be due to inhibition of bile acid reasorbtion, ether through physical binding or because of the viscous nature of oat ß glucan which entraps bile acids in the small intestine. 1, record 3, English, - %C3%9F%20glucan
