  • Publication number: 20180177831
    Abstract: In alternative embodiments, the invention provides compositions and methods for treating various disorders and conditions in mammals, including chronic disorders in which there is a presence of an abnormal microbiota or an abnormal distribution of microflora in the gastrointestinal tract. In alternative embodiments, the invention provides liquid preparations or formulations derived from a human fecal material (e.g., a stool) processed, e.g., filtered and/or centrifuged, such that all bacteria, fungal spores and viruses are removed, but retaining the native biologically active molecules from the fecal material and bacteriophages. In alternative embodiments, the invention provides a “rough-”, “incomplete-” or medium-filtered microbiota which still comprises native physiological components or nutritive agents for the bacteria, e.g., retains native biologically and nutritionally active components.
