How Much Akkermansia Does Pendulum Akkermansia Contain?
Each capsule of Pendulum Akkermansia contains 100 million AFUs of Akkermansia muciniphila WB-STR-0001.
Other brands measure CFUs. What are AFUs?
AFU stands for Active Fluorescent Unit. Like CFU, AFU is a measure of viable (live) bacteria. Both CFU and AFU represent a count of viable (live) bacteria. The difference is in the method used to measure them. CFUs are measured by plating on an agar plate while AFUs are measured by a flow cytometer. While the method of measure is different, they’re calibrated, so they’re in agreement with each other.
