Eubacterium spp.

Eubacterium spp. are a diverse group of anaerobic bacteria found in the human gut, classified within the Firmicutes phylum. Many species within this genus play a beneficial role in maintaining gut health by producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), particularly butyrate. These compounds help nourish colon cells, support immune function, and reduce inflammation. Some species may also be involved in bile acid metabolism and vitamin synthesis. An imbalance in Eubacterium populations may be associated with dysbiosis or chronic gastrointestinal conditions.

Description

What is Eubacterium spp.?

It is a genus of gut bacteria involved in the production of short-chain fatty acids, such as butyrate, which promote intestinal and metabolic health.

Why is Eubacterium important in stool analysis?

Its presence and levels can reflect the gut’s ability to produce anti-inflammatory compounds and maintain mucosal integrity.

What does a low level of Eubacterium suggest?

It may indicate a fiber-poor diet, impaired SCFA production, or microbial imbalance.

Can all Eubacterium species be considered beneficial?

While many are beneficial, some strains may act opportunistically under certain conditions, so balance is key.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
