These results coincided with those of the microbial analysis, where non-H2 producing bacteria, such as Selenomonas sp., were detected.
Multi-drug resistant microbial infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis represent an exponentially growing problem affecting communities worldwide.
Multi-drug resistant microbial infections caused by Gram positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis represent an exponentially growing problem affecting communities worldwide [ 5].
Major microbial infections associated with hedgehogs include bacteria such as Salmonella and Mycobacteria, as well as some fungal and viral diseases (2 ).
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is microbial polyester synthesized by various types of bacteria such as Cupriavidus necator, Alcaligenes spp., Pseudomonas spp., Bacillus spp., Aeromonas hydrophila and Burkholderia sacchari (Verlinden et al. 2007).
Let (s(t)), (x t)), (y(t)), and (p(t)) denote the concentrations of limiting nutrient, harmful microorganism (such as E. coli), microbial flocculant-producing bacterium (such as Bacillus subtilis), and microbial flocculant at time t, respectively.
Therefore, pH levels may shape the gut microbial communities by allowing growth of low pH-tolerant bacteria such as butyrate-producing Firmicutes species [ 132].
For instance, there have been reports on decreased microbial diversity in general [2], [3], and depletion of beneficial bacteria such as bifidobacteria in particular [4], although these trends have not been universally reported [5], [6].
Some bacteria, such as Borrelia burgdorferi and Staphylococcus aureus, or microbial products such as zymosan, a crude fungal extract of β-glycans, can induce arthritis in susceptible mouse strains [ 25- 27].
QS is a mechanism of microbial communication dependent on cell density that can regulate several behaviors in bacteria, such as secretion of virulence factors, biofilm formation, survival, and bioluminescence.
