P.7 right column bottom paragraph: "The authors estimated the percentage of human daily reference intake of each vitamin obtained from the gut bacteria [primary source]. Of the eight studied, without considering bacterial utilization, the gut microbiota were estimated to contribute over a quarter of the suggested dietary intake for four vitamins (Table 1, [primary source]). In addition, there is evidence from studies using a various human and animal colon preparations that the colonic epithelium can absorb a range of B vitamins, including folate, riboflavin, biotin, niacin and thiamine, via specific carrier-mediated mechanisms [ref 57]." |

P.11 left column 2nd paragraph: "In Table 1, organisms identified as
participating in these reactions are shown. It should also be noted that these phenylacetic- and hydroxyphenyl-acetic acids can also be derived from fermentation of aromatic amino acids ([ref 45], see “Protein” section)." See notes beneath table |
