Abstract

We examined in vitro the adhesion of Enterococcus faecium NHRD IHARA (NHRD IHARA) to porcine small intestinal mucin (PSIM) and inhibition of the adherence of enteropathogenic bacteria due to preincubation of PSIM with NHRD IHARA. NHRD IHARA exhibited an effective barrier function in porcine small intestinal mucus layer.
