16S rRNA Sequencing: Identifies bacterial species by sequencing a specific gene, offering insights into bacterial diversity. Metagenomic Sequencing: Sequences all DNA in a sample for a comprehensive view of microbial composition and function. Metatranscriptomics: Analyzes RNA to understand the functional activity of microbes. Shotgun Metagenomics: Sequences all DNA for detailed taxonomic and functional information. Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) Analysis: Studies microbiome changes post-transplantation. PCR: Amplifies specific microbial DNA for targeted identification. Flow Cytometry: Quantifies specific microbial cells using fluorescent markers. Culturing: Grows microbes in the lab for further study (limited by cultivability). Mass Spectrometry (Metabolomics): Analyzes microbial metabolites to understand their functions.
