Abstract excerpt
Covariation in the structural composition of the gut microbiome and the spectroscopically derived metabolic phenotype (metabotype) of a rodent model for obesity were investigated using a range of multivariate statistical tools. Urine and plasma samples from three strains of 10-week-old male Zucker rats (obese (fa/fa, n=8), lean (fa/-, n=8) and lean (-/-, n=8)) were characterized via high-resolution 1H NMR...
