16S: Modulation of small intestinal microbial composition induced by 2 weeks consumption with 2 fermented milk products; a randomized, exploratory, cross-over, double blind, controlled study in ileostomy patients

Metataxonomic profiling (16S) of ileostomy samples. The samples were collected for the INSIDE double-blinded, placebo controlled explorative dietary study. The study was aimed to characterize the impact of fermented food may have on the small intestinal microbiota and systematically. Subjects participated in an approximately 100 days long trial with 3 intervention periods. 27 ileal effluent samples were collected per subject allowing a longitudinal analysis of the impact that consumpion of milk fermented products may have on the small intestinal microbial composition.
