A frozen concentrate (>10⁹ cfu/ml) of a human strain of Lactobacillus
lactis (strain MLC) was fed to swine. Bottle feeding resulted
in reduced fecal coliform counts and incidence of scouring in nursing
pigs. In one group of pigs treated 54 days, the Lactobacillus to coliform
ratio was 1280:1; in the...

products and sequences. The GO ontologies
are expanding both in content and in structure.
Several new relationship types have been introduced
and used, along with...
