Collinsella species

Collinsella species refers to a group of gut bacteria involved in carbohydrate processing and energy related activity in the intestine. These bacteria can be part of the normal gut microbiome, but changes in their levels may reflect shifts in how the microbiome processes energy from food, especially carbohydrates. Higher or lower levels may be seen together with changes in digestion, stool quality, gas production, or the overall bacterial balance of the gut. Collinsella species levels can help show whether carbohydrate and energy related bacterial activity is a noticeable part of the dog’s gut microbiome pattern.
