Human gut 16S rRNA gene amplicon data for Whey Baseline 30
The stool samples of individuals were collected using OmniGut stool collection kit at the start of the study during the 2nd visit and at the end of the study or 14th visit. The collected stool samples were sent out to Argonne National Laboratory for 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing using standard protocol of Earth Microbiome Project for the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. The Illumina MiSeq, was used to generate paired-end reads, using the 2 x 250 kit.
