Microbial fermentation and associated products provide insights into the gut microbiota-host relationship. Here, we propose using improved technologies that allow non-invasive, real-time measurements of intestinal gases as a metric for microbial fermentation. This approach has the potential to provide a basis for personalized interventions that improve host metabolic health.
微生物发酵及其相关产物为研究肠道微生物群与宿主的关系提供了新视角。在这里,我们提出使用改良技术,以非侵入性、实时测量肠道气体的方法作为衡量微生物发酵的指标。这种方法有可能为改善宿主代谢健康的个性化干预措施提供依据。
