Abstract
The colonic microflora is an organism that performs a variety of unique activities. It is more important to evaluate these activities than to analyze bacterial composition in terms of genera, species, or strains. Unless the bacteria translocate, it is the activities of the colonic microflora that affect colonic and systemic physiology and not the bacteria themselves.Entities:
