Comparative Evaluation of Translocation of GFP Producing Escherichia coli Strains in Acute Intestinal Obstruction

Abstract

Comparative evaluation of translocation of E. coli GFP-producing strains in experimental rats with obturation and strangulated intestinal obstruction was carried out. Translocation of infused GFP-producing E. coli strain was studied by bacteriological methods in male rats with experimental obturation and strangulated intestinal obstruction with various ischemia/reperfusion cycles. The maximum incidence of translocation in obturation intestinal obstruction was observed after 24 h. In strangulated intestinal obstruction, the highest incidence was recorded in ischemia/reperfusion cycles of 1 h/2 h and 2 h/6 h. No appreciable differences in the incidence of translocation in animals with two types of intestinal obstruction were detected.
