Evidence suggesting importance of role of interbacterial inhibition in maintaining balance of normal flora.

Abstract Evidence presented in support of the hypothesis that interrelationships among organisms in the pharynx provide one of the mechanisms that maintain the bacterial status quo. Many organisms ...
