How it works

You will receive the first scientifically validated health check of your intestinal microbiome and appropriate recommendations how to improve your intestinal microbiome with the right diet and lifestyle.

1

Your analysis kit

Your myBioma package includes an analysis kit with instructions, a sample container with a preservative liquid, a stool catcher for deep cleaners and a pre-franked return envelope.

2

The stool collection

You can take a stool sample comfortably and discreetly from home. After you have taken the sample, send it back to us with the pre-franked return envelope.

3

The analysis

As soon as we receive your sample, it is processed in our partner laboratory and analysed using the latest 16S Next Generation Sequencing methods.This analysis is very complex and therefore takes about 4-6 weeks.

To know what is going on

With the myBioma microbiome analysis, all bacteria in your stool are examined using next-generation DNA sequencing. You will receive your comprehensive report and find out how the bacteria affect your health and also how you can improve your quality of life. The report is structured as follows.

Microbial composition

Overview of all bacteria
Species richness
Diversity
Species equality
Probiotic bacteria

Find out how different and unique your microbiome is

Nutrition and food conversion

Enterotype
Caloric intake
Metabolism

Find out the effects your intestinal bacteria have on your food intake

Health

Leaky gut
Irritable bowel syndrome
Intestinal-brain axis
Intestinal-heart axis
Intestinal-liver axis
Intestinal-skin axis

Find out what symptoms and health conditions your bacteria may be associated with

Improvement suggestions

Based on your results, you will receive personalised suggestions for improvement to optimise your microbial health and overall well-being.

About the test

The innovation lies in the unique linkage of DNA sequencing with a growing knowledge base on the interactions of the microbiome with the human organism.

We keep tight

Everyone deserves a safe, private place to explore and understand their microbiome. We think it is important that you can understand how we handle your data, which is why we designed myBioma and the myBioma analysis with the highest possible degree of privacy. Here is an overview of the information we collect, how it is used and when it is shared.

This information
we collect

When you use our platform, we collect personal data, such as your name, your email address and information about web behavior (e.g. your IP address). We collect genetic and lifestyle information through the stool sample and the survey results that you provide to us.

This is how we save your
data

Your personal data is stored in a high security data center in Vienna. Your personal data will be assigned an identification number for identification and customer service.

Encryption

myBioma uses industry-standard security measures to encrypt sensitive personal data at rest. myBioma also uses HTTPS by default to encrypt all data in transit.

How we treat your research-
data confidentially

Your genetic and lifestyle information will be stripped of any personal identification data and transferred to our research environment, where it will be stored with your survey response data. This data is only collected in order to make it available to science and to further develop our own algorithms.

Security measures
in our systems

myBioma believes that genetic information and the systems used to protect it deserve the highest level of security. Therefore, myBioma uses software, hardware and physical security measures to protect the computers on which customer data is stored. We use robust authentication methods to access our systems.

It is important to note that myBioma cannot protect your data if you share it with others. In addition, despite the application of the latest technical and industry-specific guidelines to protect your data, it is never possible to give a full guarantee against security breaches.

How does myBioma handle my data?

The protection of your data is one of the most relevant challenges for us. The data is stored encrypted on secure servers in Austria. Furthermore, there is no transfer of your data to insurance companies, banks or advertising institutions.

We keep our mouth shut!

In which countries is myBioma currently available?

We deliver within whole Europe – and free of shipping costs! If you live outside of Europe and still want to do a myBioma microbiome analysis, send us an email directly and we will find a solution!

Why does the analysis cost so much? I can give a stool sample to my family doctor free of charge...

That’s true. However, your doctor’s analysis will be based on stool cultures. Such cultures are one of the oldest methods of analysis (for 200 years) and are scientifically inaccurate in the quantitative detection of different bacteria.

On the other hand, myBioma can detect more than 1000 different types of bacteria using Next Generation DNA Sequencing and also gives you information about the functions of bacteria. Due to the complexity of Next Generation Sequencing, the analysis is very cost-intensive.

How much is the return shipping cost?

So that the entire process, from order to receipt of the result, is as easy as possible for you, we do not charge any extra costs for return shipping. You just have to throw the envelope in the envelope with the stool sample into the nearest mailbox. Everything else we take care for you!

Our team will be happy to answer your questions.
