Population changes of indigenous murine Candida pintolopesii under various experimental conditions and routes of inoculation
Abstract
Fecal Candida pintolopesii population levels were found to be significantly affected by laparotomy-inoculation-Bollman apparatus restraint, laparotomy-inoculation, and a milk diet. Gastrectomized rats could not support yeast populations; in intact animals, yeast cells failed to colonize the gastrointestinal tract distal to the stomach. Copraphagia contributed little to stomach yeast populations, supporting the notion that stomach yeast growth occurs at fairly rapid rates.
