Of 237 isolates of Bacteroides fragilis from sewage influent at the Bozeman, Mont., wastewater treatment plant, 22 (9.3%) were enterotoxigenic, as indicated by the ability to elicit fluid accumulation in the lamb ileal loop test. It appears that enterotoxigenic B. fragilis is endemic in the human population at a moderately high level.
在蒙大拿州博兹曼市污水处理厂的污水进水口分离出的237株脆弱拟杆菌中,有22株(9.3%)具有产肠毒素能力,这一点通过在羔羊回肠袢试验中引发液体蓄积的能力得以表明。看来产肠毒素脆弱拟杆菌在人群中呈中等程度的高流行状态。
