"Intestinal spirochaetosis" of the vervet monkey.
Electron microscopy revealed that 80% of captured vervet monkeys, held in quarantine for experimental use, showed extensive proliferation of spiral-shaped bacteria on the mucosal epithelium of the large bowel. A consortium, consisting of a predominant spirillum together with a spirochaete, was usually seen as a lawn covering the colonic epithelium ...

Intestinal spirochaetosis. Light and electron microscopic study.
24 cases of colon spirochaetosis have been studied by light and electron microscopy. This condition, although rarely diagnosed because of the absence of special clinical symptoms, seems to be a rather frequent histologic finding with marked variation in its geographical incidence. In our material the incidence of spirochaetosis was 16.5%, almost double

Human Intestinal Spirochaetosis
Human intestinal spirochaetosis is a condition of the colon that is characterized by the presence of spirochaetes attached to the mucosal cells of the colon. These spirochaetes belong to the family Brachyspiraceae and two species are known to occur in humans: Brachyspira aalborgi and Brachyspira pilosicoli. However, the clinical relevance of intestinal
