Metabolomic Profiling for Systemic Body Odor

This post is meant to be thought provoking. Need to discover all volatiles/metabolites that cause systemic body odor. Once discovered, these volatiles will be known as the biomarkers for the diagnostic test, Trimethylaminuria (TMAU) was 'discovered' in 1970 by Denver Dr's. A patient's mother had...

Paper : firmicutes produce more TMA than bacteroides

New paper : The aim seems to be to see how trimethylamine precursors (choline in foods etc) affect TMA-oxide levels in a group of healthy young men. The conclusion seems to be that those with a higher ratio of Firmicutes / Bacteroide gut bacteria generate more trimethylamine from precursors.  ...

P&G TMA-blocker will be stronger than DMB

In a magazine article in April about the gut flora, this statement was made "Hazen says DMB, the olive-oil molecule from his study, is too weak to put into a pill. He’s working on creating stronger inhibitors." So it looks like something stronger than DMB will be used by the Cleveland Clinic for...

FMO3 DNA testing
Update Aug 17 :
Genos is back with it's EXOME test

Note :
Exome/Genome testing may be better option than single gene testing.

See this post : link

Note : Genos Exome Testing.

Exome testing is almost the same price now as single gene testing. Also Genos is consumer friendly, which standard DNA labs are not.

So the blog offer to test solely for FMO3 is almost obsolete, and so no longer offered.


Does Genos fully sequence FMO3 gene ?

At the moment it is not clear, but hoped this will become clear over the next few months

Note : possible 'wild west' way of testing FMO3
Use an ancestry dna site and rummage through the raw data
