LBUX23 Isolated from Feces of a Newborn; Potential Probiotic Properties and Genomic Characterization.

is considered a microorganism with probiotic potential, which has been extensively studied, but these probiotic effects are strain dependent. This work aims to characterize the probiotic potential, based on the biochemical and genomic functionality, of LBUX23, isolated from neonates' feces. LBUX23 contains one circular genome of 2,287,838 bp with a G+C content of 60.

Correlation between diet and gut bacteria in a population of young adults.

Dietary habits strongly influence gut microbiota. The aim of this study was to compare and correlated the abundance of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes phyla, some representative bacteria of these phyla such as Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Prevotella, Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Clostridium leptum and Bifidobacterium longum as a member of Actinobacteria phylum in young adults with their food intake. Faecal samples used came from lean subjects (BMI = 19.
