Objective Antibiotic (AB) usage strongly affects microbial intestinal metabolism and thereby
impacts human health. Understanding this process and the underlying mechanisms remains …

The human intestinal microbiota performs many essential functions for the host. Antimicrobial
agents, such as antibiotics (AB), are also known to disturb microbial community equilibrium…

Amplicon-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) of immunoglobulin (IG) and T-cell
receptor (TR) gene rearrangements for clonality assessment, marker identification and …

Background Antibiotic associated diarrhea and Clostridium difficile infection are frequent
complications of broad spectrum antibiotic therapy. Probiotic bacteria are used as therapeutic …

Motivation The study of immunoglobulins and T cell receptors using next-generation
sequencing has finally allowed exploring immune repertoires and responses in their immense …

The microbiomes in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of individuals receiving antibiotics and
those in obese subjects undergo compositional shifts, the metabolic effects and linkages of …

Assessment of clonality, marker identification and measurement of minimal residual disease
(MRD) of immunoglobulin (IG) and T cell receptor (TR) gene rearrangements in lymphoid …

Clostridium difficile infections are an emerging health problem in the modern hospital
environment. Severe alterations of the gut microbiome with loss of resistance to colonization …

The thallus surface of the brown macroalga F ucus vesiculosus is covered by a specific
biofilm community. This biofilm supposedly plays an important role in the interaction between …

Gut microbiota play a key role in the host's health system. Broad antibiotic therapy is known
to disrupt the microbial balance affecting pathogenic as well as host-associated microbes. …
