The aim of the project is to characterise the gut micribiota of two pig models; the Ossabaw and the Goettingen Minipigs
Recent evidence suggests that the gut microbiota is an important contributing factor to obesity and obesity related metabolic disorders, known as the metabolic syndrome. The aim of this study was to characterise the intestinal microbiota in two pig models of obesity namely Göttingen minipigs and the Ossabaw minipigs.
