“I opened the report they sent me about my microbiota, and I said to myself—I can’t understand a thing. What do they think to themselves, that people can just read and understand all these names of all these bacteria and microbes? It reminded me of studying anthropology thirty years ...

To further test the generality of BHI-mucin media for community cultivation, we inoculated the other two infant fecal samples into BHI with either 0.4% or 0.6% mucin (Methods). One sample (“FT-2”), collected from a 56-day-old full-term infant, consists of at least 20 bacterial species...
2) Test-retest reliability If you use different microbiome test kits on the same fecal sample, you may get different results as to your microbiome makeup. This variance in test results is an obvious indicator that many of today’s testing kits are imprecise. Tufts University microbiology special...
but then reports will change in minor or major ways — resulting in support emails and phone calls. Support can be a major expense. So keep to what we started with. I suspected that with uBiome Plus, they were working on using new reference values, after all it was a different test!!
This section of the Results also shows that the Viome test is reproducible. Three different experiments were performed in which small numbers of participants (3 to 7 persons) collected stool samples testing the following: stool collection from different part of their stool sample (Figure 5) waiting...

As a first test of this hypothesis, we experimentally removed the microbiota from Dmel and tested whether these axenic flies remained repellent to Ds. Because we suspected the Ds microbiota might also influence oviposition avoidance, we performed this test with both axenic and conventionally reared Ds...
(right panel).BFor each drug class, the number of genes tested by Resistomap is shown underneath the title (see Table S4A for full details) together with the ANOVA test on the differences due to the presence of antibiotics (‘A’), surfacevs.planktonic (‘S’) or both (‘A:S’), ...
To validate the classification model obtained from random forest analysis, we performed an association test using the assoc function from the vcd package (v. 1.4-9) which computes Pearson’s chi-squared (X2) value, which is designed to evaluate the deviation from an independence model in ...
