Changes in the bacterial population of the caecum and stomach of the rabbit in response to addition of dietary caprylic acid

摘要: The effect of caprylic acid, either in its pure form, or as Akomed R, on the microbial community stomach and caecum farmed rabbits was investigated. This fatty which is often added to diet reduce mortality rates shown number coliforms isolated from both caecum. Moreover, it led a reduction total anaerobic bacteria caecum, but not for those stomach. Its mode action remains unclear, here by use DGGE TRFLP analysis that these changes are confined one specific group bacteria, rather affects species.
