TL;DR: The volatile microbial signatures of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) are reported, a quality that greatly hinders the ability to classify healthy from affected subjects using 16S rRNA profiles from stool, and could microbiome instability become actionable by creating a new classifier that benefits from repeated measurements?

TL;DR: T-test transformation of tree-ignorant metrics can be sufficient to control for patterns arising from shared ancestry, and the effect of recoding suggested that charge-based alphabets were generally superior for identifying the stabilizing interactions in alpha helices.

TL;DR: 3D molecular cartography was used in combination with mass spectrometry and microbial inventories to highlight human-environmental interactions and offer novel insights to investigators who value the reconstructing of human lifestyle and characterization of human environmental interaction.

TL;DR: There are methods, systems and processes for the utilization of microbial and related genetic information for use in industrial settings, such as the exploration, determination, and recovery of natural resources, minerals, and energy sources, the monitoring and analysis of processes, activities, and materials transmission as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection with a random forest model in a hospital setting.
