Gut microbes are picky eaters. Some bacteria have already been shown to break down uric acid. The bacteria need oxygen to survive and are considered “aerobic.” The gut, however, has very ...

However, common gut anaerobes actually have relatively oxidized proteomes, so their depletion drives overall reduction at the community level. ...

Anaerobic human Intestine Chip supports complex gut microbiome under low oxygen, enabling direct investigations of health and disease-related human-microbiome interactions Peer-Reviewed Publication ...

The connection between respiratory infections, chronic diseases like asthma, and the gut microbiome drives research toward more effective, targeted treatments for lung diseases.

Certain gut microbes have been associated with certain diseases, ... For example, the colon is a surprisingly low-oxygen (anaerobic) environment.

In the colon, anaerobic flora, including Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes, comprise 90% of the total microbiota and contribute to 10 9 bacteria/gram of colonic tissue.

Anaerobic gut fungi are an untapped reservoir of natural products. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021; 118 (18): e2019855118 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2019855118; ...

Anaerobic bacteria were among the first life forms on earth and existed at a time when there was no oxygen in the atmosphere. While many organisms ...
