Wow Encarnación, what an amazing review on the subject, very good, congratulations for such a work. I read it fast but I will read it again carefully. Congrats as well to Gonzalo. Since I could ask so many things I just want to focus on 2 questions: i) any comment based on your experience on what role exogenosu enzymes can play in fiber digestion (Encarnación I work for Danisco Animal Nutrition, but give your very open view about it), ii) Iwas wondering if you could say anything about the potential role of these bacteria called Firmicutes, which seem to produce interesting levels of butyrate from insoluble fiber fermentation?. Many thanks, muchas gracias, abrazos from Madrid.
