Functional heterogeneity in the fermentation capabilities of the healthy human gut microbiota.
The human gut microbiota is known for its highly heterogeneous composition across different individuals. However, relatively little is known about functional differences in its ability to ferment complex polysaccharides. Through ex vivo measurements from healthy human donors, we show that individual...
