Fig. 4: Consumption of HMOs and derived carbohydrates for each species dropout experiment.

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) of carbohydrates of interest from experiments cultivated in mZMB with a representative mix of HMOs as carbon source. Fucose (Fuc), galactose (Gal), glucose (Glc), lactose (Lac), 2´-fucosyllactose (2’FL), 3´-sialyllactose (3’SL), and lacto-N-tetraose (LNT) were used as standards. Samples were taken every 2 h. TLCs were performed in duplicates, and the representative replicate is shown.
