Abstrakt: |
Growth of coliform organisms or enterococci was obtained from jejunal aspirates taken from twenty-one of twenty-three Haitian subjects who had either tropical sprue, protein malnutrition, or were asymptomatic. These bacteria were shown to be capable of synthesizing monoglutamate forms of folate as well as 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid or pteroyltriglutamate, or both. In addition, the finding that folate concentrations of the supernatant were higher after growth in a source of conjugated folate than following growth in crystalline folic acid suggests that folate deconjugase was elaborated during growth of these bacteria. |
