Bacteroides. This group of microbes constitute the most abundant members of the intestinal microflora of mammals. Typically they are symbionts, but they can become opportunistic pathogens in the peritoneal (intra-abdominal) cavity. This organism produces many extracellular enzymes which assist in the breakdown of complex plant polysaccharides More...such as cellulose and hemicellulose and host-derived polysaccharides such as mucopolysaccharides.Bacteroides ovatus. Bacteroides ovatus is part of the normal human gut flora, however it is the least common of the Bacteroides intestinal isolates. In one comprehensive 16S rDNA sequence-based enumeration of the colonic microbiota of three healthy adult humans it represents, on average, 0.034% of all 16S rDNA sequences and 0.041% of the sequences in its division (Eckburg et. al. (2005)). This organism is occasionally isolated from clinical specimens and can also be isolated from poultry. Less...
