Equilibrium 1.0.0

Strain List

Inclusion criteria

Our strains were selected using the following criteria:

• Safety - the strains were taken from produce and other foods, have a history of human consumption, and are not associated with any infection, or increased susceptibility to infection.
• Suitability - the microbes themselves are not uncommon in the human gut.
• Compatibility - the strains do not respond poorly when grown in the same medium.
• Function - the microorganisms provide, in aggregate, one or more of the desired metabolic pathways.
• Reproducibility - we were able to grow the microbe reliably at a cost suited for Equilibrium’s target price point.

Food-sourced strain names

Equilibrium’s strain names read like a dictionary because it’s composed of food-sourced strains. Non-pathgenic, food-sourced strains received little study until the last decade or so, when high-throughput sequencing allowed researchers to collect (and name) them in bulk lots of 20,000 or more at a time.

Identification method

The microbes in Equilibrium are identified here using the names of their nearest genetic match in GenBank, the NIH’s genetic sequence database. Matches were determined using the NCBI’s BLAST tool.
