World Microbiome Day has passed, but there is still more to learn about why #MicrobiomesMatters. Gut microbes turn some fibres into short-chain fatty acids, including acetate, propionate and butyrate. Explore the science: buff.ly/PD53Ohh #Microbiome #SCFAs

Can good bacteria help protect cows? For #WorldMicrobiomeDay, Sharon Olanrewaju, explains bacteriocins, compounds made by bacteria that can act against other bacteria, and why researchers study them in cow health. #Microbiome #Bacteriocins #CowHealth #AnimalHealth #Microbiology

Can viruses that only infect bacteria support pig health? For #WorldMicrobiomeDay, @emmanuelkuffo15.bsky.social, explains research into #bacteriophages and #pighealth. Phages, are viruses that infect bacteria. Researchers study them to better understand targeted ways to manage harmful bacteria.

Your gut microbes help process oestrogen. For #WorldMicrobiomeDay, Claire O'Conner, explains the estrobolome and why researchers study gut microbes involved in oestrogen metabolism. #Microbiome #Estrobolome #GutMicrobiome #Oestrogen #Research

Antibiotics target bacteria, not your own cells. For #WorldMicrobiomeDay, Ellen Twomey explains why stopping #antibiotics early because of this misunderstanding can be a problem. If you are worried about side effects, ask a doctor, dentist or pharmacist. @masseylab.bsky.social #Microbiome #AMR

🦠On #WorldMicrobiomeDay, here's an update on one of our exciting new gut microbiome projects... Isobel is using Bowel Research UK funding to better understand how faecal microbiota transplants (FMTs) can be used to treat people with bowel diseases.

Today is World Microbiome Day 🦠 Microbes are vital to human, animal & environmental health. Studying microbiomes helps us understand infection, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the effects of antibiotic use. Read our policy briefing: https://microb.io/4uTfAzC #WorldMicrobiomeDay #KOAMR #AMR
