Microbiome (fungal and bacterial) profiling compares the microbiota in various healthy and diseased conditions, and it provides insight into its polymicrobial interactions as a prelude to designing interventional approaches.
This service includes testing of both preclinical and clinical applications involving therapeutic prevention and treatment, as well as nutritional supplements (e.g., probiotics, prebiotics, micro-nutrients).
By utilizing microbiome profiling, NTS can reliably assess how the microbiome varies across different treatment groups in clinical trials and identify statistically significant associations between clinical indications and specific microbiome compositions. NTS has customized its pipeline to investigate how medical treatments, probiotics, prebiotics, and other interventions (e.g., dietary) change the abundance and diversity of different microbial taxons.
