The Effect of Qiweibaizhu Powder Crude Polysaccharide on Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea Mice Is Associated With Restoring Intestinal Mucosal Bacteria.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Qiweibaizhu powder (QWBZP) has been shown to be effective in treating antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD). Previous research has reported that plant polysaccharides can promote the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria and inhibit the multiplication of pathogenic bacteria, thus effectively treating diarrhea. Here, we investigated the effect of QWBZP crude polysaccharide on the diversity of intestinal mucosal bacteria and their community structure composition in mice with AAD, and the aim of this study was to provide the scientific basis for the efficacy of QWBZP crude polysaccharide on diarrhea.

Materials and methods

Eighteen Kunming (KM) mice were randomly divided into the normal (mn) group, the model (mm) group, and the QWBZP crude polysaccharide treatment (
