The study was withdrawn due to change of the study product formulation.

This study is initiated to investigate the effect of infant formulas with added specific prebiotic oligosaccharides on the reduction of specific potential pathogens and/or toxins.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Healthy term infants (gestational age 37 to 42 weeks) aged 2-2.5 months at inclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

• Being weaned before inclusion (introduction of any other foods other than formula or breast milk.)
• Moderate or severe acute malnutrition, defined as weight-for-age and sex below -2 z-scores of the median WHO growth standards
• Disorders requiring a special diet (such as food intolerance or food allergy or complaints such as reflux, constipation and cramps)
• Significant congenital abnormality that could affect the study results
• Use of systemic antibiotics or anti-mycotic drugs in the 4 weeks preceding the study
• Investigator's uncertainty about the willingness or ability of the parents to comply with the protocol requirements
• Participation in any other studies involving investigational or marketed products concomitantly or within two weeks prior to entry into the study
• Gastroenteritis in the last two weeks before inclusion
