The Capacity of the Fecal Microbiota From Malawian Infants to Ferment Resistant Starch.

abstract：:Here, we review sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) caused by pathogenic bacteria and vaginal infections which result from an overgrowth of opportunistic bacterial microflora. First, we describe the STDs, the corresponding pathogens and the antimicrobials used for their treatment. In addition to the well-known diseas...
