In vitro competition assay of C. rodentium and B. thetaiotaomicron under physiological relevant concentrations of cyanocobalamin. Cyanocobalamin alone was unable to directly alter C. rodentium growth or virulence. a Enumeration of C. rodentium and B. thetaiotaomicron grown in competition for 6 h anaerobically and b of C. rodentium grown alone. Expression of gene related to virulence (Ler, Tir, and EspA) did not differ between treatments when C. rodentium was grown in c competition or d alone at different concentrations of cyanocobalamin (n = 6; P < 0.05)
