Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the outcome of cholera. In this context, Paracoccus aminovorans , a gut commensal, has been evidenced to positively influence the pathogenesis of the cholera bacterium. In the present study, we examined the impact of various non-antibiotic strategies on the growth of Paracoccus aminovorans . We observed that the growth of Paracoccus aminovorans was severely restricted by L-ascorbic acid and in co-culture growth assays with a gut commensal, Weissella confusa .
