Microbiome Laboratory Test for Dogs and Cats
The Lab4Pets Gut Microbiome Test is a home test designed to improve the health and well-being of your dogs and cats. Through detailed analysis of the microorganisms present in the intestine, this service provides crucial information to improve the digestive and overall health of pets.
What it allows you to analyze:
- Identification of bacteria that promote intestinal health, such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, which aid in digestion and vitamin synthesis.
- Measuring the variety and quantity of different microbial species present in the gut, important for a balanced microbiome.
- Evaluation of the balance between beneficial and pathogenic bacteria, indicating a state of eubiosis (balance) or dysbiosis (imbalance).
- Analysis of the microbiome's ability to produce SCFAs (short-chain fatty acids) which are fundamental for intestinal health and energy metabolism.
- Evaluation of the production of essential vitamins, such as vitamin K and some B vitamins, by intestinal bacteria.
In just 15 days you will receive the results directly to your email.
