The importance of isolating a microbe from the environment, such as food (solid substrate), drinks (liquid substrate), and yourself because of the many microbes that are difficult to observe or distinguish directly using the five senses.

A Quantitative Sequencing Framework for Absolute Abundance Measurements of Mucosal and Lumenal Microbial Communities [PDF]
A fundamental goal in microbiome studies is determining which microbes affect host physiology. Standard methods for determining changes in microbial taxa measure relative, rather than absolute abundances.

Every four years, the Olympic Games plays host to competitors who have built on their natural talent by training for many years to become the best in their chosen discipline. Similar spirit and endeavour can be found throughout the microbial world, in which every day is a competition to survive and thrive.

Microbial Scout Hypothesis and Microbial Discovery [PDF]
ABSTRACT In this study, we examine the temporal pattern of colony appearance during cultivation experiments, and whether this pattern could inform on optimizing the process of microbial discovery. In a series of long-term cultivation experiments, we observed an expected gradual increase over time of the total number of microbial isolates ...

Microbial community pattern detection in human body habitats via ensemble clustering framework [PDF]
The human habitat is a host where microbial species evolve, function, and continue to evolve. Elucidating how microbial communities respond to human habitats is a fundamental and critical task, as establishing baselines of human microbiome is essential ...

The environmental niche concept describes the distribution of a taxon in the environment and can be used to understand community dynamics, biological invasions, and the impact of environmental changes. The uses and applications are still restricted in microbial ecology, largely due to the complexity of microbial systems and associated methodological ...

Microbial micropatches within microbial hotspots
The spatial distributions of organism abundance and diversity are often heterogeneous. This includes the sub-centimetre distributions of microbes, which have 'hotspots' of high abundance, and 'coldspots' of low abundance. Previously we showed that 300 μl abundance hotspots, coldspots and background regions were distinct at all taxonomic levels. Here we

A human gut microbial gene catalogue established by metagenomic sequencing
To understand the impact of gut microbes on human health and well-being it is crucial to assess their genetic potential. Here we describe the Illumina-based metagenomic sequencing, assembly and characterization of 3.3 million non-redundant microbial ...

Effects of gamma irradiation on microbial and sensory properties of fresh leek and parsley [PDF]
The consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables plays an important role in promoting the general public's health and preventing various diseases. However, these useful products can be a good carrier for transmitting bacteria, parasites, and pathogens to ...
