OBJECTIVE
Prebiotic substances have the property of intestinal fermentation. Cellobiose has a beta-1,4 linkage, so it is resistant to hydrolysis by human small intestinal disaccharidase and, hence, reaches the colon undigested. Until this study, it was unclear whether cellobiose has fermentability
The name Vibrio hollisae (synonym = Special Bacteriology group EF-13) is proposed for a new group of 16 strains that occurred in stool cultures of patients with diarrhea. V. hollisae is a small gram-negative rod, which is motile with a single polar flagellum. No lateral or peritrichous flagella were
In 1983, the vernacular name Enteric Group 77 was coined for a group of strains that had been referred to our laboratory as "possible Vibrio cholerae except for gas production." By DNA-DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite, 32P), 8 of 10 strains of Enteric Group 77 were very highly related to the
Although cellulose is generally considered not to affect the viscosity of the digesta in the upper gastrointestinal tract, we found previously that the ingestion of cellulose elevated the viscosity of the gastric, small intestinal, and cecal contents when particulate matter was included in the
A new high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been used to measure urinary sugar levels for the intestinal permeability test with cellobiose and mannitol (C/M test). Urinary specimens have been prepared by simple filtration through a Millipore membrane. The method is highly sensitive
Pups of both the California and Stellar sea lions have no intestinal enzymes for hydrolysis of sucrose, lactose, cellobiose, or trehalose. If these animals were given lactose or sucrose, they developed severe fermentative diarrhea and weight loss similar to the clinical syndrome encountered in
The ecology of non-O 1 Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio mimicus as causes of cholera-like diarrhea or seafood-associated gastroenteritis has been investigated in Toyama Prefecture since 1980. The relationship between biological or serological characteristics of the isolates and their enteropathogenicity
In 1985 the vernacular name Enteric Group 90 was coined for a small group of strains that had been referred to our laboratory as probable strains of Salmonella but did not agglutinate in Salmonella typing antisera. By DNA-DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite method, 32P), seven strains of Enteric Group
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), in association with leucovorin (LV), is the most used chemotherapy agent in the treatment of colorectal cancer. Response rate, as well as side-effect incidence, increases with the dose intensity of regimens that are used. The most common dose-limiting toxicity for 5-FU/LV
A lactulose/mannitol (La/Ma) test was compared with a standard cellobiose/mannitol test (Ce/Ma) in 17 patients with newly diagnosed celiac disease and 12 healthy controls. The mean La/Ma test was 0.163 (SEM 0.076) in celiacs and 0.016 (SEM 0.002) in controls. The mean Ce/Ma test was 0.132 (SEM
