The Robogut: A bioreactor model of the human colon for evaluation of gut microbial community ecology and function

Researchers at the University of Guelph have engineered the Robogut, a bioreactor model that emulates the human colon environment. Employing the Multifors bench-top bioreactor, this innovative system allows for precise cultivation and analysis of gut microbial communities, providing valuable insights into their roles in human health and disease.
