microbiota

Examples of microbiota in the following topics:

• Normal Microbiota and Host Relationships

  • Normal microbiota are the microorganisms that reside in the bodies of all humans.
  • Our normal microbiota consists of various bacteria, fungi, and archaea.
  • An example of our bacterial microbiota is E. coli .
  • Interestingly, normal microbiota can be key players helping the body fight off infection.
  • Explain the relationship between the normal microbiota and the host upon infection of a pathogen

• Normal Eye Microbiota

  • The human microbiome (or human microbiota) is the aggregate of microorganisms that reside on the surface and in deep layers of skin, in the saliva and oral mucosa, in the conjunctiva, and in the gastrointestinal tracts.
  • Give examples of the microorganisms found in the normal eye microbiota

• Suppression and Alteration of Microbiota by Antimicrobials

  • The human body hosts thousands of different species of microbial organisms, known as the microbial flora or microbiota.
  • Microbiota serve many functions in our body; most notable is the gut flora, crucial for the proper digestion of food, carbohydrate fermentation, and nutrient absorption.
  • In addition to serving a necessary function as gut flora due in metabolism of food, some microbiota in our bodies serve the function of keeping pathogenic microbes from inhabiting or dominating other flora at locations in our body.

• Normal Genitourinary Microbiota

  • The human microbiome, or human microbiota, is the aggregate of microorganisms that reside on the surface and in deep layers of skin, in the saliva and oral mucosa, in the conjunctiva, and in the gastrointestinal tracts.

• Normal Gastrointestinal Microbiota

  • In this context, gut is synonymous with intestinal, and flora with microbiota and microflora; the word microbiome is also in use.
  • In 2009, scientists from INRA (France) highlighted the existence of a small number of species shared by all individuals constituting the human intestinal microbiota phylogenetic core.
  • Summarize the relationship between the nonpathogenic gastrointestinal microbiota and the human hosts

• Microbiota of the Skin

  • The skin flora, more properly referred to as the skin microbiome or skin microbiota, are the microorganisms that reside on the skin.
  • The skin flora, more properly referred to as the skin microbiome or skin microbiota, are the microorganisms that reside on the skin.

• Innate Resistance

  • The human microbiome (or human microbiota) is the aggregate of microorganisms that reside on the surface and in deep layers of skin, in the saliva and oral mucosa, in the conjunctiva, and in the gastrointestinal tracts.
  • In this context, gut is synonymous with intestinal, and flora with microbiota and microflora, the word microbiome is also in use.
  • In this context, gut is synonymous with intestinal, and flora with microbiota and microflora.

• Penetrating Host Defenses

  • The human microbiome (or human microbiota) is the aggregate of microorganisms that reside on the surface and in deep layers of skin, in the saliva and oral mucosa, in the conjunctiva, and in the gastrointestinal tracts.

• Overview of Human-Microbial Reactions

  • The skin microbiota are composed mostly of bacteria of which there are around 1000 species upon human skin from 19 phyla.
