NGS Microbiome Analysis
A microbiome test doesn't mean they're all the same test.

The results obtained from gut microbiome tests can vary depending on the analysis platform. Gut microbes form colonies in various environments. Therefore, it is important to understand the distribution of various strains rather than focusing on individual strains. (Metagenome)

NGS analysis enables the detection of the overall gut ecosystem by identifying microbial compositional characteristics of clusters through taxonomic binning of data, allowing investigation into the correlation with diseases.

Actual gut examinations are feasible through NGS analysis.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PCR AND NGS?

Q-PCR Analysis

Quantiative-PCR

01. Detects only targeted known sequences

02. Detects only a few specified microorganisms

03. Limited analysis results of the gut environment

VS

NGS Analysis

Next-Generation Sequencing

01. Comprehensive and Expanded Detection Capability

02. Simultaneously detect almost all microorganisms present in the specimen

03. Comprehensive analysis of the gut environment possible

The Gut-Morning test is conducted using NGS analysis.

The Gut-Morning testing service provides accurate and reliable analysis of gut microbiota utilizing a high-quality DNA extraction technique and a specimen preservation kit with excellent stability. Unlike PCR testing methods that only detect the presence of 1-2 types of microorganisms, we employ Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), enabling the examination of all microorganisms present in a single sample. This allows us to read the genetic information (microbial 16S ribosomal RNA gene) of all gut microorganisms.

The gut microbiota environment can be shaped differently based on external factors such as diet, lifestyle habits, and more. Through Gut-Morning's gut microbiome testing, individuals can periodically monitor their gut health status and initiate tailored preventive actions that suit their specific needs.

*NGS, or Next-Generation Sequencing, is a method of analyzing the entire genome by breaking it down into countless fragments, reading each fragment simultaneously, and then assembling the fragments to analyze the sequence of the entire genome. NGS enables rapid and accurate decoding of vast genomic information.
