Journal ArticleDOI
Colonisation of the chicken caecum by afimbriate and aflagellate derivatives of Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis
TL;DR: The overall trends shown by these methods of assessment indicated that flagella and not fimbriae were important in caecal colonisation in these models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanosilver-Mediated Change in Human Intestinal Microbiota
TL;DR: These experiments suggest that AgNP ingestion, either deliberate or inadvertent, could have negative consequences on the authors' intestinal microbiota.
Journal ArticleDOI
A vaccine and diagnostic target for Clostridium bolteae, an autism-associated bacterium.
Brittany Pequegnat,Martin Sagermann,Moez Valliani,Michael Toh,Herbert Chow,Emma Allen-Vercoe,Mario A. Monteiro +6 more
TL;DR: These findings are the first description of a C. bolteae immunogen and indicate the prospect of using this polysaccharide as a vaccine to reduce or prevent C. Bolteae colonization of the intestinal tract in autistic patients, and as a diagnostic marker for the rapid detection of the bacterium in a clinical setting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bringing the gut microbiota into focus through microbial culture: recent progress and future perspective.
TL;DR: Innovative approaches to the culture and study of the human microbiota will ultimately guide medical practice, as the importance of a robust gut microbial ecosystem in the maintenance of health is increasingly realized.
Journal ArticleDOI
SEF17 fimbriae are essential for the convoluted colonial morphology of Salmonella enteritidis
TL;DR: Data indicate an essential role for SEF17, and possibly for another fimbria and flagella, in the generation of the convoluted colonial phenotype, and the relationship between virulence and colonial phenotype is discussed.
