Mallett et al. (1987) |
Conventional rats, HFA rats and human faeces |
Biochemistry |
Concluded that flora was similar between all three study subjects on basis of indirect measurements and only true for 3 of 4 tested enzymes |
Hirayama et al. (1991) |
HFA mice |
Bacteriology |
Bifidobacterium not implanted in HFA mice |
Hirayama et al. (1995) |
HFA, conventional mice and human faeces |
Bacteriology and Biochemistry |
Differences in implanted flora, Bifidobacterium not implanted in all mice. |
Differences in enzyme activities and bacterial metabolism |
Hazenberg et al. (1981) |
HFA, conventional mice and human faeces |
Bacteriology |
HFA flora similar to man but distinct from conventional mice |
Pecquet et al. (1986) |
HFA mice and human faeces |
Bacteriology |
Concluded similarity in flora but only screened Enterobacteriaceae and total anaerobes |
