delta/epsilon subdivisions Details: NCBI 68525, gram-negative or unknown [clade]

| delta/epsilon subdivisions

1. Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria (Deltaproteobacteria): Some members of the delta subdivision, specifically Deltaproteobacteria, include sulfate-reducing bacteria. These bacteria are involved in anaerobic respiration and play a role in the sulfur cycle. While sulfate-reducing bacteria are generally not associated with human health, in certain conditions, they may contribute to the production of hydrogen sulfide, a gas with a characteristic "rotten egg" odor, which can be problematic in certain environments.

2. Pathogenic Bacteria (Epsilonproteobacteria): The epsilon subdivision includes Epsilonproteobacteria, some of which are known human pathogens. Notable examples include Helicobacter pylori, which is associated with stomach ulcers and gastric cancer. Other members of Epsilonproteobacteria can be found in diverse environments, including the human gastrointestinal tract.

3. Symbiotic and Environmental Roles: Some members of the delta/epsilon subdivisions have symbiotic or mutualistic relationships with host organisms. For example, certain sulfate-reducing bacteria can form symbiotic relationships with marine invertebrates. Additionally, Epsilonproteobacteria may be found in various environmental niches, including hydrothermal vents and deep-sea environments.

4. Environmental Impact: Sulfate-reducing bacteria within the delta subdivision can influence the cycling of sulfur in various environments, impacting ecosystem processes. Epsilonproteobacteria, depending on their specific ecological roles, can also play a part in environmental processes and nutrient cycling.

5. Human Health Implications: Helicobacter pylori, a well-studied bacterium within the epsilon subdivision, is associated with gastric disorders. Infection with H. pylori is a risk factor for peptic ulcers and is considered a class 1 carcinogen for gastric cancer by the World Health Organization.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for delta/epsilon subdivisions

• Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
• UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
• Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
