Abstract

Bifidobacterium longum are common inhabitants of the human gut throughout the life span, and have been associated with health-promoting effects, yet little is known about the genotype profile and evolution of these isolates. Our study showed that there was significant difference in gut bacterial community and abundance of B. longum between the elderly from two neighboring cities.
