## Deciphering Soil Biology across more than 100 diverse agricultural fields

Innovation Center for Organic Farming

Soil biology is complex and a lot remains to be understood as to how farming practices and soil properties shape the soil microbiome. When the Innovation Center for Organic Farming launched the project The Microbial Community of the Field, the goal was to shed light on some of these questions and give a stronger data foundation for advisors in their daily work.

## Microbiome support for a Parkinson's disease mini-pig study

Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University

Deep brain stimulation is known to benefit patients with Parkinson's disease, but the underlying mechanisms are still not fully understood. Researchers at the Department of Clinical Medicine designed a longitudinal study using mini-pigs as a Parkinson's disease model to investigate how deep brain stimulation affects synaptic changes in the brain.

## Identify Microbiome Biomarkers in Neonatal Obstruction

Johns Hopkins Hospital

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Hospital are working to uncover better diagnostic methods for children at risk of urinary tract obstructions and potential kidney damage. As part of this research, tissue and fluid samples were collected using neonatal animal models.

## Coral microbiome analysis during disease emergence

Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine

Coral reefs worldwide are under increasing pressure from environmental stress and disease outbreaks, with major consequences for ecosystem health and biodiversity. Researchers at Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine studied the bacterial microbiome of coral samples collected from reefs near St Kitts during a period when Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease emerged on the reef.

## Understanding yield differences through soil microbiome analysis

European Manufacturer of soil amendment

A field trial designed to evaluate the effect of a new product in organic maize production showed highly variable yield responses across different sections of the field. While some areas performed well, others delivered lower yields, making it important to understand whether these differences reflected variation in soil biology, field conditions, or how the product interacted with the existing soil system.

## Get sample collection right from the start – sometimes a pilot is worth it

Confidential Client

Client is an organisation working within environmental or ecological research

In microbiome projects, planning is critical to getting meaningful results. Without experience in microbiome study design, important decisions around sampling and methodology may be made too early or on too little evidence.

Life Science & Animals

## Microbiome Monitoring in Animal Model Facilities

Confidential Client

Client is an organisation working within preclinical contract research and animal model studies

The microbiome of research animals can change over time within a facility or when animals are moved between facilities. Because the microbiome can influence study outcomes, these shifts may affect results without being recognised as a source of variation.

Client is a company working within agricultural biologicals and microbial product development

Microbes are living organisms. They grow, die, and change over time, even when production conditions carefully controlled.
