Impact of parenteral antimicrobial administration on the structure and diversity of the fecal microbiota of growing pigs.

While antimicrobials are cost-effective tools for prevention and treatment of infectious disease, the impact of their use on potentially beneficent mucosal microbial communities of growing pigs has not been widely explored. The objective of this study was to characterize the impact of parenteral antibiotics administration on the composition and diversity of the resident fecal microbiota in growing pigs. Five antimicrobial treatment groups, each consisting of four, eight-week old piglets, were administered one of the antimicrobials; Ceftiofur Crystalline free acid (CCFA), Ceftiofur hydrochlorid

Effect of elevated salt concentrations on the aerobic granular sludge process: linking microbial activity with microbial community structure.

The long- and short-term effects of salt on biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal processes were studied in an aerobic granular sludge reactor. The microbial community structure was investigated by PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) on 16S rRNA and amoA genes. PCR products obtained from genomic DNA and from rRNA after reverse transcription were compared to determine the presence of bacteria as well as the metabolically active fraction of bacteria. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to validate the PCR-based results and to quantify the dominant bacterial pop

Tissue-Associated Bacterial Alterations in Rectal Carcinoma Patients Revealed by 16S rRNA Community Profiling.

Sporadic and inflammatory forms of colorectal cancer (CRC) account for more than 80% of cases. Recent publications have shown mechanistic evidence for the involvement of gut bacteria in the development of both CRC-forms. Whereas, colon and rectal cancer have been routinely studied together as CRC, increasing evidence show these to be distinct diseases. Also, the common use of fecal samples to study microbial communities may reflect disease state but possibly not the tumor microenvironment. We performed this study to evaluate differences in bacterial communities found in tissue samples of 18 re

Effects of Mixed Fermentation with Indigenous Xinjiang Non-Saccharomyces Yeasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae on Co-Fermentation Characteristics and the Quality of Munage Wine.

This study employed sequential inoculation of native non-brewing yeasts Kluyveromyces marxianus YC-T7 and Pichia kudriavzevii QC-P3 to co-ferment dry white wine from Munage, a unique fresh-eating grape variety native to Xinjiang, providing technical support for the development of regionally distinctive wines in Xinjiang. To investigate how mixed fermentation with indigenous Xinjiang non-Saccharomyces (NS) yeasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC) influences the aromatic profile of Munage wine, two NS strains-K. marxianus YC-T7 and P. kudriavzevii QC-P3-previously isolated and selected by our gr

Directional Construction of a Synthetic Microbial Consortium for Shanxi Aged Vinegar: Metabolic Kinetics and Accelerated Formation of Major Volatile Compounds.

The Daqu used in the alcoholic fermentation of Shanxi aged vinegar (SAV) is technologically related to the medium-temperature Daqu used for Baijiu production, but variation in vinegar Daqu quality can lead to unstable saccharification, alcoholic fermentation and aroma formation. We therefore hypothesized that functional microorganisms selected from Light-Flavor Baijiu Daqu could be combined with isolates from vinegar fermentation to improve the alcoholic fermentation stage of SAV, and that a defined consortium would provide a controllable system in which to test this hypothesis. Twenty cultura

Highly diverse microbiota in dental root canals in cases of apical periodontitis (data of illumina sequencing).

INTRODUCTION: Chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) is a frequent condition that has a considerable effect on a patient's quality of life. We aimed to reveal root canal microbial communities in antibiotic-naive patients by applying Illumina sequencing (Illumina Inc, San Diego, CA). METHODS: Samples were collected under strict aseptic conditions from 12 teeth (5 with primary CAP, 3 with secondary CAP, and 4 with a periapical abscess [PA]) and characterized by profiling the microbial community on the basis of the V6 hypervariable region of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene by using Illumina HiSeq2000 seq

Microbial analysis in primary and persistent endodontic infections by using pyrosequencing.

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to investigate the bacterial community profile of intracanal microbiota in primary and persistent endodontic infections associated with asymptomatic chronic apical periodontitis by using GS-FLX Titanium pyrosequencing. The null hypothesis was that there is no difference in diversity of overall bacterial community profiles between primary and persistent infections. METHODS: Pyrosequencing analysis from 10 untreated and 8 root-filled samples was conducted. RESULTS: Analysis from 18 samples yielded total of 124,767 16S rRNA gene sequences (with a mean of

Development of an in vitro periodontal biofilm model for assessing antimicrobial and host modulatory effects of bioactive molecules.

BACKGROUND: Inflammation within the oral cavity occurs due to dysregulation between microbial biofilms and the host response. Understanding how different oral hygiene products influence inflammatory properties is important for the development of new products. Therefore, creation of a robust host-pathogen biofilm platform capable of evaluating novel oral healthcare compounds is an attractive option. We therefore devised a multi-species biofilm co-culture model to evaluate the naturally derived polyphenol resveratrol (RSV) and gold standard chlorhexidine (CHX) with respect to anti-biofilm and an

Consumption of Wild Rice (Zizania latifolia) Prevents Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease through the Modulation of the Gut Microbiota in Mice Model.

Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) due to excess weight and obesity threatens public health worldwide. Gut microbiota dysbiosis contributes to obesity and related diseases. The cholesterol-lowering, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects of wild rice have been reported in several studies; however, whether it has beneficial effects on the gut microbiota is unknown. Here, we show that wild rice reduces body weight, liver steatosis, and low-grade inflammation, and improves insulin resistance in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice. High-throughput 16S rRNA pyrosequencing demonstrated th

Microbiota-derived metabolites as modulators of cancer immunotherapy response.

The microbiome is a key regulator of host homeostasis and immune activity, in part through the production of metabolites. These microbiota-derived metabolites can modulate both the innate and adaptive immune system, as well as directly target tumour cells, thereby regulating anti-tumour immunity and response to immunotherapy. Here, we describe the current mechanistic knowledge on how these metabolites exert their effects and outline the methodologies used to detect and assess these metabolites. Finally, we summarize microbiota-targeted therapies capable of improving microbial functionality to

Duration of Hospitalization is Associated with the Gut Microbiome in Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Early Results from a Randomized Trial of Home Versus Hospital Transplantation.

Home-based hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is an innovative care model with growing interest, but its impact on the gut microbiome remains unexplored in a randomized setting. We present interim results from the first randomized controlled trials (RCT) evaluating the effect of HCT location-home versus hospital-on gut microbial diversity and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) gene carriage. We hypothesize that patients randomized to undergo home HCT would have higher gut taxonomic diversity and lower AMR gene abundance compared to those undergoing standard hospital HCT. We analyzed sto
