Intestinal Strangulation in Escherichia coli-Monocontaminated Gnotobiotic Rats.
The natural course of ischemic and hemorrhagic intestinal strangulation in previously germ-free rats individually monocontaminated with one of five separate strains of Escherichia coli was investigated. In addition, the effect of intraintestinal homologous heparinized blood upon the course of ischemic intestinal strangulation in E. coli-monocontaminated rats was studied. It was found that (i) E...
متن کاملAutoantibodies to Colon in Germfree Rats Monocontaminated with Clostridium Difficile
Germfree rats monocontaminated with the anaerobic microorganisms Clostridium difficile or another Clostridium species (strain G 62) produce auto-antibodies to colon antigen. The antigen can be extracted with phenol water from the feces of germfree rats. Antibodies, demonstrable by means of passive hemagglutination of antigen sensitized sheep erythrocytes appear after monocontamination for 35 da...
متن کاملClostridium perfringens Epsilon Toxin Increases the Small Intestinal Permeability in Mice and Rats
Epsilon toxin is a potent neurotoxin produced by Clostridium perfringens types B and D, an anaerobic bacterium that causes enterotoxaemia in ruminants. In the affected animal, it causes oedema of the lungs and brain by damaging the endothelial cells, inducing physiological and morphological changes. Although it is believed to compromise the intestinal barrier, thus entering the gut vasculature,...
متن کاملResults of Experimental Intestinal Strangulation Obstruction in Germfree Rats
Experimental low ileal strangulation obstruction has been produced in germfree and conventional rats. The mean survival time was 240 hours in the germfree rats and 44 hours in the conventional controls. 4 of the 10 germfree rats survived 15 or more days, whereas the 10 conventional animals were all dead within 2(1/2) days. The strangulation obstruction fluid from the germfree animals was steril...
متن کاملReduction of bilirubin ditaurate by the intestinal bacterium Clostridium perfringens.
Bilirubin is degraded in the human gut by microflora into urobilinoids. In our study we investigated whether the bilirubin-reducing strain of Clostridium perfringens can reduce bilirubin ditaurate (BDT), a bile pigment of some lower vertebrates, without hydrolysis of the taurine moiety. C. perfringes was incubated under anaerobic conditions with BDT; reduction products were quantified by spectr...
