The Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium population in the feces of 26 animals (16 species) were studied by culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques. Lactobacilli were detected from a few herbivores, all carnivores and some omnivores. Lactobacillus johnsonii, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus salivarius, Lactobacillus vaginalis and Lactobacillus ingluviei were the most dominant lactobacilli in carnivores. These species were, however, not predominant in herbivores and omnivores. Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus parabuchneri, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus sakei, Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides, usually present in raw plant material, were present in omnivores but not in carnivores. Bifidobacteria were detected in only four herbivores and two omnivores. Bifidobacterium pseudolongum was the only Bifidobacterium species detected in herbivores. Bifidobacteria detected in the two omnivores are phylogenetically not closely related to known species and are possible novel species in the genus.
采用培养依赖和培养独立技术研究了 26 种动物（16 个物种）粪便中的乳杆菌属和双歧杆菌属种群。从一些草食动物、所有肉食动物和一些杂食动物中检测到了乳杆菌。在肉食动物中，最主要的乳杆菌是约翰逊乳杆菌、雷特氏乳杆菌、唾液乳杆菌、阴道乳杆菌和英格鲁维氏乳杆菌。然而，这些物种在草食动物和杂食动物中并不占优势。短乳杆菌、干酪乳杆菌、副干酪乳杆菌、植物乳杆菌、清酒乳杆菌、肠膜明串珠菌和伪肠膜明串珠菌通常存在于原料植物中，存在于杂食动物中，但不存在于肉食动物中。双歧杆菌仅在 4 种草食动物和 2 种杂食动物中检测到。在草食动物中检测到的唯一双歧杆菌是假长双歧杆菌。在这两种杂食动物中检测到的双歧杆菌在系统发育上与已知种没有密切关系，可能是属中的新种。
