FOS and MOS in dogs: digestion, microbes and immune markers
One study, 1 reviewed ingredient or arm connection(s).
Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS); arm fos-supplement
Declared occurrence: Fructooligosaccharides. Tested preparation: FOS supplied at 1 g per feeding, twice daily.. Population: Four adult female dogs with ileal cannulas; 14-day periods..
Study dose: 1 g per feeding, twice daily. Oral feeding supplement.. Duration: 14-day periods.. Comparator: The same kibble without these supplements..
Measured outcome: Digestibility, microbial populations, protein-breakdown products, and immune indices.. Finding within this study: FOS-containing treatments lowered faecal indoles and phenols. Combined FOS/MOS increased ileal IgA versus control; several reported effects were only trends.
Applicability and limitations: Very small, surgically instrumented population; short periods and multiple surrogate outcomes. Related papers may share experiments. Only for published UK dog products whose active formulation has a verified FOS ingredient line. This study tested a separate FOS supplement in four cannulated adult female dogs; it is ingredient context, not a finished-product or life-stage test. Preparation equivalence is not established by this declaration. Product inclusion quantity is not declared. A declared ingredient amount does not establish intake of the study dose. The formulation declaration is disputed or awaits label verification.

Protein level changes the response to FOS in dogs
One study, 1 reviewed ingredient or arm connection(s).
Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS); arm fos-in-protein-factorial
Declared occurrence: Fructooligosaccharides. Tested preparation: Fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) added to lower- and higher-protein foods; inclusion level not reported in the reviewed abstract.. Population: 12 healthy adult dogs in a replicated four-treatment Latin square..
Study dose: Not reported in the reviewed abstract. Food inclusion; amount not reported.. Duration: 28-day periods with washouts.. Comparator: Corresponding unsupplemented foods..
Measured outcome: Faecal fermentation, microbes, and apparent digestibility.. Finding within this study: Higher protein and FOS each increased faecal ammonia. FOS increased apparent digestibility of several minerals; protein level modified some FOS effects, including bifidobacteria and protein digestibility.
Applicability and limitations: Faecal measurements are surrogate outcomes. Small healthy population; no disease-treatment endpoint. Only for published UK dog products whose active formulation has a verified FOS ingredient line. The study tested FOS in different protein diets in healthy adult dogs; it is ingredient context, not a finished-product or life-stage test. Preparation equivalence is not established by this declaration. Product inclusion quantity is not declared. A declared ingredient amount does not establish intake of the study dose. The formulation declaration is disputed or awaits label verification.
