Characterisation of caecum and crop microbiota of Indian indigenous chicken targeting multiple hypervariable regions within 16S rRNA gene.

A comparative analysis of caecum and crop microbiota of chick, grower and adult stages of Indian indigenous chickens was conducted to invest … at sample richness and diversity increased as the chicken aged. For the first time, the presence of Lactobacillus species such as L. frumenti, L. antri, L. mucosae in the chicken crop along with Kineococcus radiotolerans, Desulfohalobium retbaense and L. jensenii in the caecum are reported. Many of these bacterial species have been found to be involved in immun …

The Human Microbiome during Bacterial Vaginosis.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is the most commonly reported microbiological syndrome among women of childbearing age. BV is characterized by a shift in the vaginal flora from the dominant Lactobacillus to a polymicrobial flora. BV has been associated with a wide array of health issues, including preterm births, pelvic inflammatory disease, increased susceptibility to HIV infection, and other chronic health problems. A number of potential microbial pathogens, singly and in combinations, have been implicated in the disease process. The list of possible agents continues to expand and includes members …

Interactions between fungi and bacteria influence microbial community structure in the Megachile rotundata larval gut.

Recent declines in bee populations coupled with advances in DNA-sequencing technology have sparked a renaissance in studies of bee-associate … d changes in the bacterial community. We found no evidence that bacteria affect fungal communities. Lactobacillus kunkeei clade bacteria were common members of the larval gut microbiota and exhibited antibiotic resistance. Further research is needed to determine the effect of gut microbes on M. rotundata health.

Rifaximin modulates the vaginal microbiome and metabolome in women affected by bacterial vaginosis.

In particular, rifaximin treatment was significantly associated with an increase in the lactobacillus/BV-related bacteria ratio, as well as with an increase in lactic acid concentration and a decrease of a pool of metabolites typically produced by BV-related bacteria (acetic acid, succinate, short-chain fatty acids, and biogenic amines). Among the t …

Probiotic Fermented Milk Containing Dietary Fiber Has Additive Effects in IBS with Constipation Compared to Plain Probiotic Fermented Milk.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Although controversial, probiotics and dietary fiber are commonly used for patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We evaluated the effects of multistrain probiotics on the symptoms of IBS to determine whether the addition of dietary fi ber had an additive effect on constipation-predominant IBS. METHODS: A total of 142 participants who met the Rome III criteria were recruited and randomized into a control group or a test group. Participants in the control group received multistrain probiotic fermented milk with Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and B…

Intestinal flora imbalance results in altered bacterial translocation and liver function in rats with experimental cirrhosis.

Intestinal flora imbalances are seen in clinical settings, … idobacteria treatment resulted in lower levels of Enterobacteriaceae along with increased levels of Lactobacillus when compared with the normal saline group. Both Bifidobacteria and Enterococcus treatments resulted in lower endotoxin levels than in the normal saline group. CONCLUSION: Gut flora imbalances in cirrhotic rats result in significant changes in BT a …

Multiplex detection of bacteria associated with normal microbiota and with bacterial vaginosis in vaginal swabs by use of oligonucleotide-coupled fluorescent microspheres.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a recurrent condition that is associated with a range of negative outcomes, including the acquisition of human immunodeficiency virus and other sexually transmitted diseases, preterm births, and pelvic inflammatory disease. In contrast to the Lactobacillus-dominated normal vaginal microbiota, BV is characterized by a lack of lactobacilli and an abundance of anaerobic and gram-negative organisms, including Gardnerella vaginalis and Atopobium vaginae. To date, the laboratory diagnosis of BV has relied upon the fulfillment of criteria determined by microscopic observat…

Synbiotic synthesis of oligosaccharides during milk fermentation by addition of leuconostoc starter and sugars.

Synthesis of oligosaccharides during milk fermentation was attempted by inoculating Leuconostoc citreum with Lactobacillus casei, Lb. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, and Streptococcus thermophilus as starters. Dextransucrase of Ln. citreum worked as a catalyst for the transglycosylation reaction of sugars; sucrose was added as the glucose donor, and lactose or maltose acted as the acceptor compound for the reaction. When 4% sucrose was added in milk, glucosyl-lactose was synthesized (about 1%, w/v) after 1-2 days of fermentation at 15 or 25 degrees C. Alternatively, when sucrose and maltose (2%…

Пробиотическая модуляция энергетического метаболизма улучшает экспериментальный аутоиммунный энцефаломиэлит посредством активации траектории фосфата Nrf2 в связи с пентосом.

Изменения в кишечном микробиоме не только влияют на иммунные процессы, связанные с патогенезом множественных склерозов (МС), но и влияют на регулирование метаболических путей. В моделях MS и экспериментальной аутоиммунной энцефаломиэлит (EAE) пробиотики, как считается, способствуют не только иммуному воздействию, но и перепрограммированию метаболизма энергии. В свете этих выводов в этом исследовании была проведена оценка эффективности пробиотического лакобакиллуса ацидофила LA-5 (LA-5) в расстройствах энергетического метаболизма фосфата пентозы (ППС) в процессе заболеваний. Дополнения LA-5 зам

A cross-study analysis of the effect of a dual-strain probiotic applied via the waterline on the growth performance and gut health of broilers under a mild necrotic enteritis challenge.

Probiotics offer potential as an approach for the prevention and control of poultry intestinal diseases, but external factors can influence the birds' response. Combining data from multiple trials provides greater confidence around efficacy under varying production conditions. Therefore, this study combined data from three separate trials analyzing the effect of a dual-strain probiotic comprising Lactobacillus acidophilus AG01 and Bifidobacterium animalis subspecies lactis AG02 on broilers during a mild necrotic enteritis (NE) challenge. In each, 1,440 broilers were assigned to floor-pens (40 …
