The Normal Bacterial Flora of the Human Intestine and Its Regulation

2007-04-16

Abstract excerpt

The gastrointestinal tract, and the colon in particular, is host to a number of bacteria that reside within its lumen. In health, greater than 90% of this flora is composed of anaerobes, whereas facultative anaerobes and aerobes are present in smaller numbers. The recent development of molecular methods to quantify these bacteria provides powerful tools to study the influence of these organisms on bowel function....
