Characterization of predominant bacteria from the colons of normal and dysenteric pigs.

Abstract:

:Bacterial populations adherent to the mucosa of the proximal colons of weaned, healthy pigs were compared with populations from pigs with dysentery induced by inoculation with a culture of Treponema hyodysenteriae. Isolates (136) representative of the predominant flora adherent to colonic epithelia of normal pigs and isolates (162) from pigs with dysentery were cultured anaerobically on a rumen fluid-based medium and characterized. Most (71%) of the isolates from colonic epithelia of normal pigs were gram positive, whereas 88% of the epithelia-associated isolates from pigs with dysentery were gram negative. The geometric mean of colony counts was 5.7 X 10(7)/cm2 of colonic tissue from three normal pigs and 7.7 X 10(8)/cm2 from four pigs with dysentery. A number of isolates obtained from contents of the lumens of normal pigs with dysentery were also characterized. Comparison of isolates from epithelial tissue and from contents of the lumens of the same pig indicated that these populations were different. Our results indicate that physiological changes that occur in the colons of pigs with dysentery are accompanied by marked changes in the microbial populations in the colons. The factors which regulate the population changes are not yet understood.
