| Description | Clostridium is a genus of rod-shaped, usually Gram-positive bacteria, members of which are found in soil, water, and the intestinal tracts of humans and other animals. The majority of species are obligate anaerobes. As the predominant bacteria in gut, Clostridium species exert lots of benefits to Clostridium is a genus of rod-shaped, usually Gram-positive bacteria, members of which are found in soil, water, and the intestinal tracts of humans and other animals. The majority of species are obligate anaerobes. As the predominant bacteria in gut, Clostridium species exert lots of benefits to body health via interacting with intestine directly or indirectly. Clostridium species are potent candidates to alleviate dysfunctions and disorders in intestine, they have been reported to attenuate inflammation and allergic diseases effectively owing to their distinctive biological activities. Their cellular components and metabolites, like butyrate, secondary bile acids and indolepropionic acid, play a probiotic role primarily through energizing intestinal epithelial cells, strengthening intestinal barrier and interacting with immune system. In view of their salutary performances, Clostridium species have a huge potential as probiotics....

The cells can be used for a wide variety of safety assessment and functional assays. | Creative Biolabs' Alzheimer's Disease Brain Tissue Panel (TeHAD-Alz) is designed to rapidly screen brain tissue for Alzheimer's disease-specific genes or proteins. | This product is a 43.2 kDa Human GRPR membrane protein expressed in in vitro wheat germ expression system with proprietary liposome technology. The protein is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. | Prevotella is a genus of anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria of the Bacteroidetes phylum, which also includes theclinically important genera Bacteroides and Porphyromonas. Prevotella strains are classically considered commensal bacteria due to their extensive presence inthe healthy human body and theirPrevotella is a genus of anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria of the Bacteroidetes phylum, which also includes theclinically important genera Bacteroides and Porphyromonas. Prevotella strains are classically considered commensal bacteria due to their extensive presence inthe healthy human body and their rare involvement ininfections. Prevotella spp. are members of the oral, vaginal, and gut microbiota and are often recovered from anaerobic infections of the respiratory tract. Prevotella spp. predominate in periodontal disease and periodontal abscesses. Regarding Prevotella, studies focused on the associations between the diverse species, genome and habitats with dietary patterns, health and disease. Evidence revealed beneficial effects of some Prevotella strains in the gut such as improving CVD risk factor profile and glucose metabolism. Most studies reported that vegetarians harbour higher numbers of Prevotella species as well as a high Prevotella/Bacteroides ratio compared with non-vegetarians; omnivores. Nevertheless, there is a need for more studies in humans to ascertain a causal and potential disease-triggering role for Prevotella and more in-depth metagenomic studies are needed in order to reveal the health- or disease-modulating properties....
