Microbiota Dynamics

The digestive tract hosts distinct microbiota, with unique species residing in the mouth, stomach, and colon, each adapted to their specific environments. While the oral microbiota thrives in oxygen-rich conditions, the colon houses a dense and dynamic community that plays a crucial role in metabolic activity. Advances in sampling technology are shedding light on the less understood small intestine, highlighting the complexity of our internal microbial ecosystems.
