Prediction of the intestinal resistome by a three-dimensional structure-based method
The intestinal microbiota is considered to be a major reservoir of antibiotic resistance determinants (ARDs) that could potentially be transferred to bacterial pathogens via mobile genetic elements. Yet, this ...

Diversity of H2/CO2-Utilizing Acetogenic Bacteria from Fecesof Non-Methane-Producing Humans
The purpose of this work was to study H2/CO2-utilizing acetogenic population in the colons of non-methane-producing individuals harboring low numbers of methanogenic archaea. Among the 50 H2-consuming acetogenic...
