  • Title: Fecal bacterial flora of four nordic population groups with diverse incidence of large bowel cancer.
    Author: Schwan A, Rydén AC, Laurell G.
    Journal: Nutr Cancer; 1982; 4(1):74-9. PubMed ID: 7155920.
    Abstract:
    Fecal samples were collected and biologically examined from 4 population groups, exhibiting a 3-fold range in colon cancer incidence, in Denmark and Finland. Carrier rates and counts per gram feces of several aerobic as well as anaerobic genera, including nuclear dehydrogenase-producing clostridia, were calculated. The results obtained with the described method did not confirm a relationship between colon cancer incidence and carrier rates of intestinal bacteria.
