After the 4-day regimen, fecal pellets were collected and stored at −80°C until analysis. DNA was extracted using a standard phenol:chloroform extraction method, as described previously.22 (link) Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction amplification of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) was performed with a Roche 480 II Light Cycler (Roche, Indianapolis, IN). 16S rRNA gene-specific primers were used to target specific bacterial genera; 16S rRNA (forward: 5′-ATG GYT GTC GTC AGC TCG TG-3′ (reverse: 5′-GGG TTG CGC TCG TTG C-3′). Genes were quantified by determining a standard curve for gene copy number by cloning primer sequences into pCR4-TOPO plasmids and gene copy number was determined from stool as described previously.23 (link),24 (link)

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
