For the new study, the researchers bred zebrafish embryos without gut bacteria. When they hatched, some were immediately inoculated with a microbiome, while others were inoculated a week later.

The relationship between nanomaterial, gut microbiome and immunity has been the subject of the present study performed using zebrafish. The nanomaterial investigated was graphene oxide ...

Led by Travis Wiles, PhD, assistant professor, the study, “Phollow reveals in situ phage transmission dynamics in the zebrafish gut microbiome at single-virion resolution,” was published in ...

We have known for years that the gut microbiome can alter brain function, but now research in mice is suggesting that the ...

In the study, "Phollow reveals in situ phage transmission dynamics in the zebrafish gut microbiome at single-virion resolution," published in Nature Microbiology, researchers designed a live ...

A new study shows that an eight-week wild-food-only diet in a modern adult leads to dramatic, partially lasting changes in ...

A number of modern diseases could be traced to disturbances in the gut microbiome. Our digestive tract contains some 1.5 kilograms of bacteria. This gut microbiome, long overlooked by doctors ...

The researchers also reintroduced microbes to the mice after antibiotics through fecal microbial transplants. The rationale ...

The gut microbiome — the ecosystem of tiny organisms inside us all — has emerged as fertile new territory for studying a range of psychiatric conditions and neurological diseases. Research has ...

For the microbiome to be effective, it requires a symbiotic relationship between the beneficial and not-so-beneficial bacteria that colonize specific areas of the gut.
