Evaluation of Different Enzymes on Hydrolysis Efficiencies of Glucuronide Drug Metabolites in Urine

β-glucuronidase (GUS) enzymes are utilized to hydrolyze glucuronide (gluc) drug metabolites to the parent drug, facilitating analysis by LC-MS/MS.

Probiotics and Human Health

Probiotics exhibit an inhibitory effect on pathogens, help prevent chronic intestinal inflammatory diseases or atopic syndromes, and support the immune system.
