Shared and unique environmental factors determine the ecology of methanogens in humans and rats.

The American journal of gastroenterology - 1 Oct 2000

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: This study ascertains the relative contributions of genetics and environment in determining methane emission in humans and rats. There is considerable interest in the factors determining the microbial species that inhabit the colon. Methanogens. which are archaebacteria, are an easily detected colonic luminal bacteria because they respire methane. They are present in some but not all human colons and...
