Compared to their healthy counterparts, patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) can exhibit an altered gut microbiota composition, correlated detrimental outcomes, including reduced insulin sensitivity, dyslipidemia, and increased markers of inflammation. However, a typical T2D profile is not established. The aim this pilot study was explore the bacteria associated prediabetes (pre-T2D) patients, treatment naïve compared subjects.Fecal samples were collected from subjects (from Norway)....
Background and Aims: The mineral compound Luvos Healing Earth (LHE) is a commercially available remedy empirically used for variety of gastrointestinal disorders. aim this study was to investigate the possible effect prolonged LHE therapy on gut microbiota in healthy individuals patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D). Methods: In prospective exploratory study, total 20 participants, including 12 controls 8 IBS-D, received treatment (Magenfein Granulat, 1 sachet...
Introduction: There are numerous confounding variables in the pre-analytical steps analysis of gut microbial composition that affect data consistency and reproducibility. This study compared two DNA extraction methods from same faecal samples to analyse differences composition. Methods: was extracted 20 using either (A) chemical/enzymatic heat lysis (lysis buffer, proteinase K, 95 °C + 70 °C) or (B) mechanical (bead-beating, 65 °C). Gut microbiota mapped through 16S rRNA gene (V3–V9) a set...
<h3>Background</h3> Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionised genomics research and become increasingly cost-effective. However, there are numerous confounding variables that affect data consistency reproducibility, particularly in the pre-analytical steps. This study compared two DNA extraction methods from same faecal samples to analyse differences microbial composition. <h3>Methods</h3> Faecal were collected twenty patients at Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust, UK. was extracted...
