Our Technology
Current methods for sampling the human intestinal microbiome face significant limitations: animal models fail to translate accurately to human conditions, fecal analysis though simple falls short in representing the true in-situ microbiome, and endoscopy, while effective, is invasive, costly, and impractical for large-scale use.
