Lacto-N-tetraose (Cat No.:M065666) is a complex oligosaccharide found in human milk, known for its role in promoting healthy gut microbiota and supporting infant immune development. As a prebiotic, LNT selectively nourishes beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacteria, aiding in digestion and pathogen resistance. In research, Lacto-N-tetraose is used to study human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), their effects on microbiome composition, and their potential applications in infant formula and gut health products. Its bioactivity and structural complexity make LNT an essential compound for advancing studies in nutrition, immunity, and gastrointestinal health.
