[Substrate phase state and time factor in variability of human fecal microbiota].
Effects of substrate phase state and time factor on variability of human fecal microbiota were studied. It was shown that microecological system of native feces was characterized by marked time-dependent variability. It is unstable and begins to destruct after 24 hours of cultivation. The most sensitive elements of the system were bifidobacteria and Escherichia coli. Change of phase state of biotope eliminated the effect of factor limiting the microecosystem development, which allowed species of obligate and transitory microflora to freely colonize the growth substrate and interact with each other. The mentioned facts demonstrate that fecal microbiota exists in the environment of excess of growth substrate, which colonization is limited by cluster structure of biotope of native feces. It was concluded that phase state of growth substrate and duration of cultivation are important factors determining the population variability of fecal microbiota.
