A growing topic in microbiology is the animal microbiome. Recently discovered by Joshua Lederberg, the microbiome is responsible for regulating the energy of the metabolism and immune functions. Goals of this research experiment are to find the bacteria that are present in rat DNA while learning the techniques used to extract, analyze, and use PCR and 16SrDNA sequencing to determine the DNA of the bacteria. With these goals, this experiment will hopefully teach researchers the best extraction methods, possible factors in the intestines bacteria.
This experiment will create the technical conditions used to internationally assess the abundance and difference in flora of the mammalian intestine. Since little is known about microbiomes, this experiment will dive deeper into the types of bacteria found in a rat’s stomach compared to those found in Homo sapiens. This comparison can help future researchers in finding
The purpose for this research is to develop a greater understanding on the bacteria and gain knowledge on the processes of DNA extraction and sequencing. If we can develop a greater understanding of the bacteria then future that are in store could possibly be accomplished. Our future hopes include using these bacteria to assist chemo therapy patients with their symptoms. While a patient is in chemo, they may have intestinal problems.
The goal is to see if microbiomes can be used to combat this side affect and find a potential treatment for this issue. The idea for this experiment came form other experiments done with cancer cells. The second goal based on this future research is to potentially work with all cancers to find a treatment using microbiomes. This plan will take several years to accomplish, but will hopefully be successful.
We hypothesize that the fecal matter will contain many kinds of bacteria including e coli and substantial DNA. Since the microbiome is presumed to have several types of bacteria, this research is hoped to have several possible results to our hypothesis. This hypothesis was determined after reading articles done by previous researchers and having substantial information on this topic.
