<p id="description">Using gut microbes as a "mine" for enzymes using a metagenomic library approach is a fairly novel idea. This concept does raise some questions.<p id="description" style="color:yellow;">Is it even possible?</p><p id="description" style="color: orange;"> How different are microbiomes to begin with, will different animals have different microbiomes? <p id="description" style="color: red;"> What enzymes are we likely to find in what animals? </p><p id="description" style="color:brown;">Are the enzymes found in each animal predictable?</p> These questions guided our proof of concept experiments and allowed us to gather some evidence for our approach. This page will answer the questions raised above and will act to provide some of evidence to the feasibility of our approach <p>
