    Sammanfattning : Interactions between intestinal bacteria and the host play an important role in physiological regulation of gut function and in development of various diseases. Nitric oxide (NO) exhibits a variety of biological actions in the gut including regulation of regional blood flow, gut motility, water and electrolyte transport and immunity. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Escherichia coli flora and diarrhea in Nicaraguan children

    Författare :Daniel Reyes Navarrete; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A combination of a phenotyping method (PhP typing) for the identification of clonal groups, and a genotyping method (PCR) for the identification of virulent strains of E. coli were used in order to obtain insight into diarrheal disease morbidity and epidemiology of diarrheagenic E. coli strains in children in León, Nicaragua.
