Design and validation of 16S rRNA probes to enumerate members of the Clostridium leptum subgroup in human faecal microbiota
29 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
Among human faecal bacteria, many members of the Clostridium leptum subgroup are fibrolytic and butyrate producing microorganisms thereby contributing to processes important to colonic health. Yet this phylogenetic subgroup remains poorly described to date. To improve detection and description of members of the C. leptum subgroup, the Clep 866 group probe was developed. Its association with probes targeting the...
