  1. 1. Biochemical parameters reflecting the intestinal ecology of healthy adults and alterations of these parameters in patients with ulcerative colitis or rheumatoid arthritis

    Författare :Peter Benno; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Microflora-associated characteristics; cholesterol; coprostanol; urobilins; faecal tryptic activity; ulcerative colitis; rheumatoid arthritis; sulphasalazine;

    Sammanfattning : The gastrointestinal microflora, the largest single collection of cells in the body, influence their human host in a variety of ways. Useful in this connection is the concept of Microflora-Associated Characteristics (MACs), which are defined as any anatomical structure or physiological, biochemical or immunological function in the host that is affected by the microflora.

    Sammanfattning : Animals and humans live in symbiosis with an active gastrointestinal ecosystem. The balance of the system is maintained by the main actors, the macroorganism, the microflora and the environment, in concert. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Influence of probiotics and other external factors on intestinal biochemical microflora-associated characteristics : studies in vitro and in vivo in gnotobiotic mice and in pigs

    Författare :Maria E Cardona G; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Gastrointestinal microflora germ-free mice; lactic acid bacteria; microflora- associated characteristics; piglets; probiotics.;

    Sammanfattning : The benefit of harboring a balanced intestinal microflora is well recognized. Therefore, in order to 'maintain or improve the intestinal flora, the use of microbial species as feed supplements, i.e. probiotics, has rapidly increased. LÄS MER
