16S-seq of rat feces P02
This study investigated the effects of a ketogenic diet on gut microbiota composition in Wistar rats. The experimental design included healthy animals and rats with experimentally induced cerebral palsy. Fecal samples were collected to evaluate microbial community changes associated with diet and neurological condition. The V3V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified and sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq platform with paired-end reads.
