Abstract

The normal intestinal flora is an important defence against various infectant agents. It also allows important metabolic stages in the host.The Authors studied the ability of Enmterococcus faecium SF 68 to protect the mice (Swiss strain) from infection by Salmonella typhi and its role when used with penicilin in infection by Staphylococcus aureus. Our results showed that SF 68, determined a good protection aginst infections. Moreover the association E. faecium SF 68- antibiotic lowers the mortalitynrate in the infected mice compared with the control group.
