Sample Collection: You provide a sample of your microbiome, usually through a stool sample.
DNA Extraction: The microbiome sample is processed to extract the DNA from the microorganisms present in it. This DNA contains valuable information about the composition and diversity of your microbiome.
Sequencing: The extracted DNA is then sequenced using advanced genomic sequencing techniques. This process involves determining the order of nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA) in the DNA strands obtained from the sample.
Data Analysis: The sequenced DNA data is analyzed using bioinformatics tools and algorithms. This analysis helps identify the different types of microorganisms present in your microbiome, as well as their relative abundances.
Report Generation: Based on the analysis results, myBioma generates a comprehensive report that provides insights into the composition, diversity, and potential functions of your microbiome. The report may also include personalized recommendations for improving gut health based on your microbiome profile.
