Using nowadays time-consuming screening methods with very limited sample throughput and low detection rates, the entire variety of bacteria is not accessible - leaving the largest proportion of the human gut biocenosis unexplored. To bring light into this uncharted terrain of the human intestinal microbiome, the authors will analyze samples of gut microbes at single cell le...
