Coliform Bacteria in the Intestine of Mice
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mice of the NCS and NCS-D colonies, bred at the Rockefeller University, harbored in their intestine an endemic strain of slow lactose-fermenting Escherichia coli 081+/-: :H21 serotype. In addition, NCS mice have recently acquired E. coli 0109+/-:K48:H14. Both strains persisted during the period of observation, whereas they were not encountered in the feces of mice from two other colonies. Other coliform strains encountered were more transient in their occurrence. Since strains of E. coli 081+/-: :H21 and 0109+/-:K48:H14 are extremely uncommon in human beings, it seems probable that they possess specificity for the mouse host.

Changes in the mouse intestinal microflora during weaning: role of volatile fatty acids.
The influence of volatile fatty acids on the ecology of the bacterial flora of the mouse intestinal tract has been studied in three situations where large fluctuations in the composition of the microflora have been observed. Young mice were shown to ingest solid food particles when 11 days old; this correlated with the appearance of strictly anaerobic fusiform bacilli in the intestinal lumen an...

Escherichia coli O157:H7 is found in cattle farms and can live in the intestine of healthy cattle. Mostcases of human illnesses including nonbloody diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndromecan be traced, either directly or indirectly, to cattle. One strategy for reducing the risk of EnterohemorrhagicEscherichia coli (EHEC) infections in human is to reduce the prevalence of inf...
