Metagenomic estimation of absolute bacterial biomass in the mammalian gut through host-derived read normalization
ABSTRACT Absolute bacterial biomass estimation in the human gut is crucial for understanding microbiome dynamics and host-microbe interactions. Current methods for quantifying bacterial biomass in stool, such as flow cytometry, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), or spike-ins, can be labo...
