Variability in fecal microbial drug deglucuronidation
… of 23 bacterial isolates, extracted from fecal samples collected from healthy individuals, was evaluated using two test substrates: 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide (4-MUG) and 4-nitrophenol-β-D-glucuronide (PNPG). For isolates demonstrating deglucuronidation activity with these test …
