VL - 21 IS - 0 SE - Mini Review Articles DO - 10.3329/jbs.v21i0.22515 UR - https://www.banglajol.info/index.php/JBS/article/view/22515 SP - 21-25 AB - <p>Human body contains a huge number of micro-organisms in its intestine. It is ten times more in number compared to the number of human body cells. These micro-organisms are mainly anaerobic bacteria and perform useful functions in relation to development of gut, and production of vitamins and hormones. These bacteria also perform a wide range of metabolic functions. The present article reviews briefly the mutualistic relationship of intestinal flora with human intestine along with their pathogenic behaviour to some extent.</p> <p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbs.v21i0.22515">http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbs.v21i0.22515</a></p> <p>J. bio-sci. 21: 21-25, 2013</p> ER -
