Abstract:
Perinatally, and between menarche and menopause, increased levels of estrogen cause large amounts of glycogen to be deposited in the vaginal epithelium. During these times, the anaerobic metabolism of the glycogen, by the epithelial cells themselves and/or by vaginal flora, causes the vagina to become acidic (pH ∼4). This study was designed to test whether the characteristics of acid production by vaginal flora in vitro can account for vaginal acidity. Eight vaginalLactobacillus isolates from four species—L. gasseri, L. vaginalis, L. crispatus, andL. jensenii—acidified their growth medium to a

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The changes in vaginal acidity impact the composition of the vaginal microbiota, either commensal or pathogenic. After menopause, the vaginal tract is more susceptible to infection. Current study was conducted to analyze the effect of vaginal acidity changes on the vaginal microbiota composition in menopausal women.METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 32 subjects with vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA). Vaginal pH was measured using a strip with colorimetric examination. The detection of Candida sp. was done by using 10% potassium hydroxide. Meanwhile for detection of Trichomo

The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of mucos acidity of vaginal mucous when estrus towards conception rate at KUD Tani Wilis Tulungagung District and KSU Tunas Setia Baru Pasuruan District. Measured samples were taken from 30 dairy cattles in each KUD. Mucos acidity of vaginal mucous were obtained by using a digital acidity meter before insemination was done on dairy cattle. After measuring the acidity from mucosal vagina mucous, artificial insemination has done on estrus dairy cattle.

Abstract:
Estrogen causes the growth of lactobacillus colonies in the vagina which convert glycogen in superficial vaginal cells into lactic acid, resulting in a low vaginal pH which can inhibit the invasion of pathogenic bacteria. After menopause, lactobacillus growth is inhibited, vaginal secretions become thin, vaginal pH increases and the immune system becomes low. This study aims to determine the effect of Lactobacillus Casei extract on secretory immunoglobulin A levels and reduce vaginal acidity levels (pH) and increase the number of beneficial bacteria in the vaginal mucosa.

ABSTRACT To reliably infect a primate model for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), ∼10,000-fold more virus must be delivered vaginally than intravenously. However, the vaginal mechanisms that help protect against HIV are poorly understood. Here, we report that human cervicovaginal mucus (CVM), obtained from donors with normal lactobacillus-dominated vaginal flora, efficiently traps HIV, causing it to diffuse more than 1,000-fold more slowly than it does in water. Lactobacilli acidify CVM to pH ∼4 by continuously producing lactic acid. At this acidic pH, we found that lactic acid, but not HCl,

Abstract Breeding manipulation season in racehorses is required to ensure the birth at the specific period (August-December), which will maximize the foal’s age when participating in their first race (July). Therefore, it is important to time the mating of mares using highly accurate estrus detection methods. This research was conducted to identify the differences data using vaginal smear and pH vagina of Thorougbred crossbreed mares in estrus and anestrus phases. Fifteen multiparous mares were conducted with a period of estrus of 19-22d. The result data showed significant differences (P<0.

Abstract:
The vagina is an ecosystem consisting of various species of microorganisms (microbiota) that play important role in maintaining vaginal health. The vaginal ecosystem includes a variety of species classified into aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms which are vaginal microbiota (VMB). In the vagina of a healthy woman, 70% of normal microbiota is dominated by the Lactobacillus species. Lactobacillus is a Gram-positive, anaerobic bacterium, and belongs to the group of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). LAB produces lactic acid which plays a role in maintaining vaginal acidity at pH <4, producing H2O2

Introduction: Vaginal discharge or another name is flour albus or leukorrhea, which occurs in women who are teenagers or of childbearing age. 75% of women will experience vaginal discharge at least once in their lives. Abnormal vaginal discharge is caused by infection from various microorganisms. In Indonesia alone, 90% of women are at risk of experiencing pathological vaginal discharge due to the tropical climate. Women often do vaginal cleaning or vaginal douching. Usually, this activity uses vaginal cleansing fluid. Objective: This study aims to dig deeper into the relationship between the
