Dead or Alive? Molecular life-dead distinction in human stool samples reveals significantly different composition of the microbial community
2018-06-11
Abstract excerpt
The gut microbiome is strongly interwoven with human health. Conventional gut microbiome analysis generally involves 16S rRNA gene targeting next generation sequencing (NGS) of stool microbial communities, and correlation of results with clinical parameters. However, some microorganisms may not be alive at the time of sampling, and thus their impact on the human health is potentially less significant. As conventio...
