Isolation and characterization of rabbit caecal bacteria
Original language description
Pectin is best digestible component of fibre in rabbits. Among sections of the rabbit digestive tract, the highest pectinolytic activity was found in the caecum. It is well know that numerous anaerobic pectinolytic bacteria inhabit the rabbit caecum, butno pure strains have been isolated and identified, according to our knowledge. Thus, two rabbits were killed, their caecal contents were serially dilluted and plated on agar with 0,4 % pectin and 10% caecal extract. One rabbit was fed on wheat, apples and hay. The second rabbit was fed a commercial concentrate mixture. Eightly colonies were picked up at rendom and examined microscopically after the Gram staining. Another colonies were cultivaated in a pectin medium, and isolated strains identified onbasis of their biochemical haracteristics. Most of isolates were irregular gramnegative anaerobic rods. Four strains were identified at the species level: Bacteroides ovatus P2, Bacteroides thetaiotamicron P4, Bacteroides caecae PN3 and Bac
