ABOUT GutAlive®
The gut microbiome studies, especially the ones focused on bacterial isolation, require proper sample collection and transport to increase the viability of oxygen-sensitive bacteria. The majority of intestinal microbes are anaerobic and the presence of oxygen drastically reduces their viability.
MICROBIOTA IDENTITY and DIVERSITY
GutAlive® generates an anaerobic atmosphere enabling oxygen sensitive bacteria to survive maintaining the original identity of the microbiota present on the stool sample.
GutAlive® increase strict anaerobic bacteria survival leading to higher bacterial species diversity without disrupting the original microbiota composition and their relative abundance.
SAMPLE STABILITY OVER 72 hours
GutAlive® warranties sample stability over 72 hours, without refrigeration, to ensure the proper atmosphere conditions for sample collection and transport to the laboratory.
PROTOCOL NORMALIZATION
Protocol normalization and the standardization of procedures are key to avoid variations within downstream analyses or applications of the sample, especially for microbiota-based therapeutic applications.
