During a 6-month bioengineering experiment the intestinal microflora of four test subjects was examined. Changes in the composition of different groups of intestinal microflora (bifidobacteria, lactic-acid bacteria, sporogenous anaerobes, proteus, etc) were found. In spite of the unstable pattern of...
