Integral expressions are given for some families of Mathieu-type
a-series and alternating
a-series in the case when the series terms contain: (i) the generalized hypergeometric functions

and (ii) Meijer’s
G-function. Using the derived integral representations, bounding inequalities are obtained for these series. The derived integral expressions and the consequent two-sided bounding inequalities generalize some known results published recently by the authors and H.M. Srivastava.
