Methanobacteria Details: NCBI 183925, gram-negative or unknown [class]

| Archaeobacteria| Archaeobacteria Murray 1988| Methanobacteria| Methanobacteria Boone 2002

  1. Gut Microbiota: Methanobacteria are commonly found in the gut microbiota of humans and other animals. They play a role in the microbial community dynamics within the digestive tract.

  2. Methane Production: Methanobacteria contribute to the production of methane in the digestive system through a process known as methanogenesis. This process is part of the overall microbial fermentation of complex carbohydrates in the gut.

  3. Digestive Processes: While methane production is a normal part of the digestive process in many animals, excessive methane production has been associated with certain gastrointestinal conditions. For example, in conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), there may be alterations in the gut microbiota, including changes in the abundance of methanogenic archaea.

  4. Methane as a Biomarker: Methane levels in breath samples have been studied as a potential biomarker for various gastrointestinal conditions. Elevated methane levels may be associated with certain functional gastrointestinal disorders.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
