Abstract
Dietary oligosaccharides are prebiotics that fuel gut microbes, but individual microbiomes may respond differently depending on oligosaccharide structures as well as microbiome composition and function. The extent to which specific gut microbial communities exhibit personalized functional responses to distinct oligosaccharides remains underexplored. We applied a standardized ex vivo microbiome culture, called RapidAIM, coupled with metaproteomics to examine how six structurally diverse oligosaccharides affect the gut microbiota functional response. Our study shows that while human gut microbiomes share some commonalities in utilizing oligosaccharides (e.g. prioritizing dietary fibers over mucin), the fine-scale metabolic and taxonomic responses are highly individualized. Such findings underscore the importance of considering personal microbiome profiles when predicting the outcome of prebiotic interventions. In a broader context, our metaproteomic approach provides a framework for identifying optimal prebiotic choices tailored to individual microbiomes. Ultimately, understanding these personalized responses could inform precision nutrition strategies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
