the effects of selko-ph (s; 1 ml/l drinking water); termin-8 (t; 2 kg/ton feed) and neogermicin (n; 2 l/ton feed) on gastrointestinal tract (git) ph, microbial population, ileal digestibility and broiler performance were investigated. the lowest feed intake (fi) was attained by chickens fed diets supplemented with s group in all periods (p

liposarcoma of the digestive tract is very rare only a few cases of liposarcoma of the stomach have been reported so far. in this article a 29-year-old woman is presented with a history of long-standing mid-abdominal pain and various treatments for anemia and peptic ulcer disease which did not improve her symptoms until a barium-enema revealed a filling defect in the cecum. under laparotomy a l...

lactobacillus strains are a major part of the probiotics, microflora of the intestine and of fermented dairy products, and are found in a variety of environments. the aim of this study was to find out the ability of bile and acid tolerance and antibacterial properties of the twenty eight isolates of three group lactobacilli namely lactobacillus plantarum, lactobacillus casei and lactobacillus d...

2 According to the immunologist Eduardo Schiffrin from Switzerland, intestinal microflora can be considered to be an organ in its own right. In fact, intestinal microflora, made of a wide variety of bacteria, is capable, like an organ, of accomplishing important functions that can be modulated by environmental factors such as nutrition. This organ has the special feature of being acquired after...

Humans evolved in the presence of numerous microbial communities that preceded the appearance of mammals on planet Earth. The role of these microbial communities in our evolution is a matter of considerable interest. Indeed, comparative studies with germfree and conventional animals have established that the intestinal microflora is essential for the development and function of the mucosal immu...

Fibres are not digested by fowls, but their impact on digestive physiology, nutrient metabolism and intestinal microflora can be substantial. Analytical shortcomings have historically contributed to different notions on the significance of fibres, but modern techniques now enable us to better discriminate between various fractions of fibre and relate them with the performance of poultry. The fo...
