In-vitro results showed a promising recovery of Bifidobacteria combined with an increase of Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA) upon Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) supplementation to amoxicillin-treated microbiota. As the microbiota is nowadays considered as a key factor in human health, a further understanding of the gut microbiota functioning in-vivo is essential. This understanding of the use of specific prebiotics may possibly be beneficial in the prevention or recovery of antibiotic-disturbed microbiota. As the effects of GOS supplementation on the microbiota composition and activity from healthy adults receiving amoxicillin have never been tested in-vivo, the investigators propose the current study as a proof of principle.\n\nObjective:\n\nTo explore whether the promising effects of GOS supplementation on the composition and activity of gut microbiota from healthy adults as found by in-vitro, can also be observed in-vivo.\n\nStudy population:\n\n10 healthy men and women volunteers, 18 - 40 yr old'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '40 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age: 18-40 \\*\n* BMI: 18.5-25 kg/m2\n* Stable weight over the last 6 months\n* Western diet\n* Availability of information about birth by caesarean section and breast-feeding\n* Regular defecation (\\~1day)\n* Healthy as judge by the participant himself\n* Having signed the informed consent form\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Smoking or drug use\n* Pregnant (include planning to be or gave birth in the last 6 months) or lactating woman\n* Using contraceptive pill\n* Gastro-intestinal diseases (e.g. irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease)\n* Traveling to an Asian, African or south American country \\< 6 months before the study\n* Hypersensitivity or food allergy for products used in this study (e.g. Lactose, Penicillin)\n* Having hepatic disease and renal failure\n* Using medication other than paracetamol, acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), hay fever, asthma\n* Not willing to have the family doctor be informed about participation to the study.\n* Antibiotic use \\< 3 months before the study\n* More than 3 antibiotic treatments in the last 2 years.\n* Probiotic or prebiotic use \\< 1 month before the study\\*'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01848535', 'acronym': 'GOS', 'briefTitle': 'Effect of GOS Supplementation on Amoxicillin-treated Gut Microbiota From Healthy Adults', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Wageningen University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Effect of Galacto-Oligosaccharides Supplementation on Amoxicillin-treated Gut Microbiota From Healthy Adults : a Proof of Principal Study', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'ABRnr42438'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'WUR42438', 'type': 'OTHER', 'domain': 'wageningen university'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'GOS addition', 'description': 'All subjects will receive amoxicillin (375 mg 3x per day) for 5 days.
