Characterization of the non-glandular gastric region microbiota in Helicobacter suis-infected versus non-infected pigs identifies a potential role for Fusobacterium gastrosuis in gastric ulceration

Table 2 Overview of the effect of heat, protease and formaldehyde treatment on cell-death inducing capacity of the 4 F. gastrosuis strains

Treatment	Loss of cell-death inducing capacity
