Evaluation of an optimal preparation of human standardized fecal inocula for in vitro fermentation studies.

TL;DR: Preparing a human fecal inoculum resuspended in dialysate solution with glycerol and then stored at -80°C showed high similarities to the results obtained with fresh feces, and is proposed as the optimal way to freeze fecal material as an alternative to fresh feces for in vitro fermentation studies.

Conserved and variable responses of the gut microbiome to resistant starch type 2.

TL;DR: The conserved responses of the gut microbiome among 13 human and 35 animal RS2 intervention studies are identified and significant variation found for this single dietary compound highlights the challenges in targeting the Gut microbiome to improve health with dietary interventions.

A core gut microbiome in obese and lean twins

TL;DR: The faecal microbial communities of adult female monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs concordant for leanness or obesity, and their mothers are characterized to address how host genotype, environmental exposure and host adiposity influence the gut microbiome.
