(Submitter supplied) Highland barley liquor is a distilled spirit made from highland barley on the Tibetan Plateau, but its alcohol yield is limited by the high fiber content of the raw material. In the field of biomass resources, functional microorganisms are commonly used in pretreatment to degrade cellulose and other substances, improving fermentation output. In this study, we isolated the cellulose-degrading probiotic Lactobacillus delbrueckii GR-8 (CMCase 6.21 U/mL) from the traditional vegetable-based fermented food "Jiangshui" and applied biological pretreatment to the fermentation of highland barley liquor. more...

(Submitter supplied) Periodontitis patients often develop bacteremia, but there has been little evidence showing that oral bacteria translocate into other organs. We found that bacterial colony formation occurs in a culture of liver and spleen cells of periodontitis-induced mice, and the bacterial species detected in the liver and spleen were found in the oral cavity as well, but not in fecal samples, indicating systemic dissemination of oral bacteria during the breakdown of the oral barrier.

(Submitter supplied) Choline is a water-soluble nutrient essential for human life. Gut microbial metabolism of choline results in the production of trimethylamine (TMA), which upon absorption by the host is converted in the liver to trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO). Recent studies revealed that TMAO exacerbates atherosclerosis in mice, and positively correlates with the severity of this disease in human. However, which microbes contribute to TMA production in the human gut; the extent to which host factors, e.g., genotype and diet, affect TMA production and colonization of these microbes; as well as the effects TMA-producing microbes have on bioavailability of dietary choline remain largely unknown. more...
