Great news for microbiome research. Stool samples can be stored in household freezers for up to six months without significant degradation or changes in microbial composition. This will make large-scale citizen science projects much easier. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
Evaluating stool microbiome integrity after domestic freezer storage using whole-metagenome sequencing, genome assembly, and antimicrobial resistance gene analysis | Microbiology Spectrum
Most prior studies on sample storage have relied on amplicon sequencing, which is
less applicable to metagenome sequencing—given considerations of contig quality and
functional gene detection—and less...

Our systematic review highlights that the #intestinal_microbiota influences responses to vaccines. We observed a beneficial impact of Bifidobacterium, and a detrimental effect of Pseudomonadota, notably Gammaproteobacteria. Thank you to @nigelcurtis.bsky.social @Cristina Adura
