Five Microflora Associated Characteristics in Conventional Rats

Pages 129-133 | Received 14 Feb 1996, Published online: 11 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

Five microflora associated characteristics (MACs) were studied in faecal samples from two groups of inbred rats, either obtained from three consecutive days or up to 13 times during a one month period. The results show minor inter- and intra-individual variations. Baselines for each MAC have to be established with regard both to species and diet, before studying host-microbiota related co-functions.
