Abstract

The human intestinal microbiota is known to play an important role in human health and disease, and with the advent of novel molecular techniques, disease-specific variations in its composition have been found. However, analysis of the intestinal microbiota has not yet been applicable in large-scale clinical research or routine diagnostics because of the complex and expensive nature of the techniques needed. Here, we describe a new PCR-based profiling technique for high-throughput analysis of the human intestinal microbiota, which we have termed IS-pro. This technique combines bacterial species differentiation by the length of the 16S-23S rDNA interspace region with instant taxonomic classification by phylum-specific fluorescent labeling of PCR primers. We validated IS-pro in silico, in vitro, and in vivo, on human colonic biopsies and feces, and introduced a standardized protocol for data analysis. IS-pro is easy to implement in general clinical microbiological laboratories with access to capillary gel electrophoresis, and the high-throughput nature of the test makes analysis of large numbers of samples feasible. This combination renders IS-pro ideally suited for use in clinical research and routine diagnostics.
