Applying indirect open-circuit calorimetry to study energy expenditure in gnotobiotic mice harboring different human gut microbial communities

Given the increasing use of gnotobiotic mouse models for deciphering the effects of human microbial communities on host biology, there is a need to develop new methods for characterizing these animals while maintaining their isolation from environmental microbes. We describe a method for performing...
