Taxonomy and Ecology of Bifidobacteria
Open accessAbstract
In recent years there have been some startling advances made in the taxonomy of bifidobacteria. The bifidobacteria are classified as a distinct genus Bifidobacterium, and a number of species and biovars are now recognized. As better techniques for the study of bacteria are devised, more definitive information on importance of bifidobacteria as part of the intestinal flora of humans and animals has been obtained. Some ecological relationships of this organism are reviewed in this paper.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
