One stool sample (1–2 g) was collected from each subject. We provided instructions describing how to collect stool specimens, place them in nucleic acid preservative, and deliver them to our Research Center within 24 to 48 h after collection. Stool specimens were collected in Assay Assure (Sierra Molecular, Incline Village, NV), which does not require refrigeration. DNA was isolated from the stool samples within 48 h of receipt and stored at −20 °C.
