Objective An adequate bowel preparation is essential for a successful colonoscopy, but to date, only scarce information exists on the impact of the bowel cleansing on the gut microbiota, in particular, 1 month after the procedure. Patients and methods Through 16S rDNA Ion Torrent profiling of fecal samples of 10 patients, we evaluated changes that occurred in the gut microbiota composition immediately after a 4 liter polyethylene glycol-based (SELG Esse) bowel lavage and 1 month thereafter. We…

Effect of gut microbiome on minor complications after a colonoscopy
TLDR
The gut microbial composition and diversity before and after bowel preparation could be considered as one of the causes of minor complications after colonoscopy.
Bowel cleansing as influencing factor of gut microbiota: the state of the art
TLDR
Colonoscopy is an endoscopic examination widely-used to evaluate the colon health of adult patients and has been observed to have a deep impact on the gut microbiota composition, leading to a temporary dysbiosis that may have some negative consequences on the host’s health.
Gut microbiome changes in overweight male adults following bowel preparation
TLDR
Depending upon the fecal type, the microbial diversity and the predictive functional modules of microbial community differed significantly after bowel preparation, which might provide some insights as to how knowledge of the microbial community could be used to promote health through personalized clinical treatment.
The effect of surgical fecal stream diversion of the healthy colon on the colonic microbiota
TLDR
Most changes in the healthy colon following surgical fecal stream diversion were observed in the phylum Bacteroidetes, indicating that these bacteria are likely part of the diet-dependent (butyrate-producing) colonic microbiome.
Oral Probiotics Alleviate Intestinal Dysbacteriosis for People Receiving Bowel Preparation
Background: Bowel preparation is necessary for successful colonoscopy, while it can seriously affect intestinal microbial composition and damage the intestinal mucosal barriers in humans. Methods: To…
Effects of bowel preparation on the human gut microbiome and metabolome
TLDR
To properly conduct studies of the human gut microbiome and metabolome, fecal sampling should be avoided immediately after bowel prep, but the overall composition recovers to baseline within 14 days.
Extending colonic mucosal microbiome analysis—assessment of colonic lavage as a proxy for endoscopic colonic biopsies
TLDR
It is proposed that colonic lavage samples provide a relatively accurate representation of biopsy microbiota composition and should be considered where biopsy size is an issue.
Comparison of sampling methods in assessing the microbiome from patients with ulcerative colitis
TLDR
Col Colonoscopic luminal content aspiration analysis could determine microbiome differences between patients with UC and the healthy control, thereby beneficial in screening dysbiosis via endoscopy.
Natural and after colon washing fecal samples: the two sides of the coin for investigating the human gut microbiome
TLDR
This first comparative study on feces and LL samples for the study of the human gut microbiome demonstrates that the use of both types of sample matrices may represent a possible choice to obtain a more complete view of thehuman gut microbiota in response to different biological and clinical questions.
Gut microbiome, surgical complications and probiotics
TLDR
This review presents the latest data on the interrelationship between the gut microbiome and the occurrence of complications after colon surgery, and the efficacy of probiotics as therapeutic instruments for changing the bacterial imbalance.

Effects of bowel cleansing on the intestinal microbiota
TLDR
The results suggest that the bowel cleansing using two separate dosages introduces fewer alterations to the intestinal microbiota than a single dose and hence may be preferred in clinical practice.
Impact of Colonoscopy Bowel Preparation on Intestinal Microbiota
TLDR
Examination of the impact of a standard bowel preparation on the intestinal microbiota using two different techniques concludes that bowel preparation does not have a lasting effect on the composition of theestinal microbiota for the majority of subjects.
Alterations in the Colonic Microbiota in Response to Osmotic Diarrhea
TLDR
Changes in microbial community structure induced by osmotic diarrhea are profound and show similarities to changes observed in other GI diseases including IBD.
Standard Colonic Lavage Alters the Natural State of Mucosal-Associated Microbiota in the Human Colon
TLDR
It is shown that there were changes in the composition of the mucosa-associated microbiota in subjects after colonic lavage, which underscores the importance of considering the confounding effects of bowel preparation when designing experiments exploring the gut microbiota.
Long-term monitoring of the human intestinal microbiota composition.
TLDR
The data show that the intestinal microbiota contains a core community of permanent colonizers, and that environmentally introduced changes of the microbiota throughout adulthood are primarily affecting the abundance but not the presence of specific microbial species.
Fecal Protease Activity Is Associated with Compositional Alterations in the Intestinal Microbiota
TLDR
These data demonstrate significant associations between specific intestinal bacterial groups and fecal protease activity and provide a basis for further causative studies investigating the role of enteric microbes and GI diseases.
Reduced Enterobacterial and Increased Staphylococcal Colonization of the Infantile Bowel: An Effect of Hygienic Lifestyle?
TLDR
It is shown that some “traditional” fecal bacteria are acquired late today especially in cesarean section–delivered infants, probably due to limited environmental circulation, and skin bacteria like staphylococci have become the first gut colonizers.
Metagenomic analyses reveal antibiotic-induced temporal and spatial changes in intestinal microbiota with associated alterations in immune cell homeostasis
TLDR
An oral antibiotic treatment protocol is developed and characterized its effects on murine intestinal bacterial communities and immune cell homeostasis and metagenomic analyses will provide a resource and framework to test the influence of bacterial communities in murine models of human disease.
Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus domination of intestinal microbiota is enabled by antibiotic treatment in mice and precedes bloodstream invasion in humans.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that antibiotics perturb the normal commensal microbiota and set the stage for intestinal domination by bacteria associated with hospital-acquired infections, and high-throughput DNA sequencing of the intestinal microbiota could identify patients at high risk of developing bacterial sepsis.
Molecular-phylogenetic characterization of microbial community imbalances in human inflammatory bowel diseases
TLDR
Patient stratification by GI microbiota provides further evidence that CD represents a spectrum of disease states and suggests that treatment of some forms of IBD may be facilitated by redress of the detected microbiological imbalances.
