Culturomics to Investigate the Endometrial Microbiome: Proof-of-Concept

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
The microbiome of the reproductive tract has been associated with (sub)fertility and it has been suggested that dysbiosis reduces success rates and pregnancy outcomes. The endometrial microbiome is of particular interest given the potential impact on the embryo implantation.

Culturomics: Bringing culture back to the forefront for effective gastrointestinal bacterial capture

Animal Nutriomics
The gastrointestinal microbiota plays a crucial role in host nutrition and health. While culture-independent techniques have advanced microbial research, they often overlook low-abundance bacteria in the microbial community.

Decoding the intestinal microbiota repertoire of sow and weaned pigs using culturomic and metagenomic approaches

Journal of Animal Science and Technology, 2021
To elucidate the role and mechanism of microbes, we combined culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches to investigate differences in gut bacterial composition between sows and weaned pigs.

Modular automated high‐throughput isolation and phylogenetic identification of bacteria from complex microbiomes

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Metagenomic analysis can generate hypotheses about microbiome interactions and function, yet mechanistic understanding is only possible through precise experimentation manipulating its microbiota composition. The high‐throughput isolation of microbiome members thus represents a core resource in this field of research.

Culturomics: bacterial species isolated in 3 healthy donors for faecal microbiota transplantation in Clostridium difficile infection

Microbiologia Medica, 2017
Background. Clostridium difficile infections are the main cause of nosocomial acquired diarrhea, because of prolonged antibiotic regimens. In the last years, mortality has increased due to recurrent infections caused by metronidazole and vancomicin ...

Mapping bat hunting, trade and consumption in Indonesia using records from online platforms

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Hunting, trade and consumption (exploitation) of bats for food, medicine or other uses is widespread and threatens many species worldwide. However, collecting exploitation data in the field is logistically challenging and resource‐intensive, resulting in gaps in our knowledge of the extent and intensity of exploitation in many areas.
