The effect of supplementation of flax-seed oil on interaction of Lactobacillus plantarum--Biocenol™ LP96 and Escherichia coli O8:K88ab:H9 in the gut of germ-free piglets. 
We investigated the influence of administration of flax-seed oil on interaction of Lactobacillus plantarum - Biocenol™ LP96 and Escherichia coli O8:K88ab:H9 in the gut of germ-free piglets.  When compared to animals supplemented with L. plantarum, the counts of lactobacilli in the jejunal and ileal mucosa and in the intestinal content were significantly higher in LMK group (p<0.0001).  Inter-groups comparison of the counts of E. coli K88 adhering to the jejunal and ileal mucosa revealed a significantly decrease in LMK animals (p<0.001; p<0.05).
