Nutrition
The gut microbiome is a key player in nutrition, with a wide impact on everything from digestion to metabolic health. At Cmbio, we specialize in omics research to uncover how diet shapes the microbiome and, in turn, how these microbial changes influence health outcomes. Whether you're researching functional foods, probiotics, or personalized nutrition, our team provides the data and support needed to optimize nutrition for better health.
Metagenomics Using LR 16S or Shotgun Sequencing
Our metagenomics pipeline offer comprehensive microbial profiling to explore how dietary interventions shape the microbiome. We offer long-read marker gene sequencing, which enables accurate bacterial identification, and shotgun sequencing, which delivers higer resolution taxonomic and functional insights. These tools allow you to investigate the effects of different diets or probiotic formulations on gut microbial composition.
Targeted and Untargeted Metabolomics
Our targeted metabolomics panels cover key nutrition-related metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), amino acids, and lipids. We also offer untargeted metabolomics for exploratory research, enabling the discovery of novel metabolites influenced by diet. These panels provide the data to understanding how microbial metabolism impacts nutrient absorption and overall health.
Functional Potential Profiling
We provide functional microbiome profiling to uncover its capacity to metabolize dietary components. This includes profiling for fiber-digesting CAZymes and the production of important microbial metabolites like SCFAs, which are central to gut health and metabolic outcomes. Our functional potential profiling helps you link microbial functions to nutritional benefits, offering actionable insights for developing functional foods and probiotics.
Multi-Omics Integration of Metabolomics and Metagenomics
Our expertise lies in integrating metagenomics and metabolomics data, offering a complete picture of how diet influences microbial communities and metabolic pathways. Combining these data layers, we help you uncover the mechanistic links between diet, microbiome composition, and health outcomes, supporting academic research and product development.
