Project description:Prostate of SD rats was injected with 0.1 ml 1% carrageenan to induce chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, and the control rats injected with sterile saline. Then, the cecal contents were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing.
Project description:The objective of this study was to determine if Salmonella colonization of chickens could be reduced through competitive exclusion using a defined community of chicken commensal bacteria. One-day old White Leghorn chicks, hatched on-site, were randomly divided into experimental groups and given an oral gavage of either a defined community of 15 bacterial species (DC), cecal contents (CC), or sterile PBS (control; CT). After one week, birds were euthanized for cecal content collection (pre-Salmonella sample) while the remaining birds were orally gavaged 1 X 10^8 colony forming units (CFU) of Salmonella enterica ser. Heidelberg strain 2813 (SH2813). Bacterial counts for three post-Salmonella timepoints (3, 14, and 28 days post inoculation; dpi) were evaluated. Bacteriological enumeration was performed by plating cecal contents onto Salmonella selective agar to determine CFU/g in each group for all collection days. Cecal contents were also used for 16S amplicon sequencing. Cecal tissue was used for stranded mRNA sequencing (RNA-Seq).
Project description:We conducted 16S rRNA sequencing analyse on colonic contents to evaluate whether forced loss led to alterations in gut microbiota composition and function.
Project description:Gut microbiota were assessed in 540 colonoscopy-screened adults by 16S rRNA gene sequencing of stool samples. Investigators compared gut microbiota diversity, overall composition, and normalized taxon abundance among these groups.

Project description:16S rRNA of mice cecal contents
Project description:Neonatal mice were susceptible to cryptosporidium infection at 1- and 2-weeks of age, but were resistant to infection at 3- and 6-weeks of age. Diet and microbial changes are known to occur during the weaning transition in mice and we hypothesized that these changes in the intestinal luminal environment might influence resistance and susceptibility to cryptosporidium infection. As one part of testing this hypothesis, cecal microbiota composition was determined by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing of DNA isolated from the cecal contents of mice at 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, and 6 weeks of age.
