Our Backbone
The most advanced technology ever built for IBD
We've built the largest and most complex artificial intelligence model and microbial database by assembling over 20.000 medical scientific papers and merging all the to-date knowledge of each microorganism. Our algorithm employs millions of unique data points.
The NostraBiome technology is the only one in the world that combines microbiome data, DNA data, blood data and advanced user profiling with established foundational medical data, but also frontier research and discoveries to generate hyper-personalized treatment programs for various autoimmune conditions.
Created by a World Class Team
Our engineers, scientists, nutritionists and doctors worked and led a few of the most advanced projects and research initiatives in the World.

The highest-resolution commercial test
Shotgun metagenomics
Shotgun metagenomic sequencing involves randomly breaking (‘fragmenting’) DNA into many small pieces, much like a shotgun would break something up into many pieces. These fragmented pieces of DNA are then sequenced and their DNA sequences are stitched back together using bioinformatics to identify the species and genes present in the sample.
​
Unlike 16S rRNA sequencing, shotgun metagenomic sequencing can read all genomic DNA in a sample, rather than just one specific region of DNA. For microbiome studies, this means that shotgun sequencing can identify and profile bacteria, fungi, viruses and many other types of microorganisms at the same time. As genomes are sequenced, it is also possible to identify and profile microbial genes that are present in the sample (the metagenome), which provide additional information about microbiome functional potential.

Our unique approach to system health
1. We analyze your body using a system biology approach
2. We can see also how your microbes and bacteria behave
3. We've designed an operating system that understands how your microbiome interacts with you
Testing process
1. Choose your product
Looking to start with just the test? No problem. You'll have the option to order any of our Personalized Solutions anytime after you've received your test results.
2. Register your test kit on our site
Registering your test will ensure we can connect your samples to you when they arrive at our CLIA-certified lab.
3. Collect your sample at home
Collect samples at home and send them to our lab
Everything you need to collect and ship your samples will be included in your test kit. No lab visit is required! We'll include a step-by-step guide and instruction videos to help you.
4. Fill in the online profiling questionnaire
Your questionnaire helps us further refine your recommendations and preferences, but most importantly understand the signals of your disease. Here you'll let us know about any medications you're taking or allergies you may have.
5. Recieve your results in about 4 weeks
The DNA sequencing of your profile requires a few weeks due to the complexity and vast amount of microbes we are looking at.
6. Get your auto immune fixing program
Depending on the solutions you have purchased we will tailor a solution for your problem and our doctors will sign off on your treatment.
Testing Results
On base of High-throughput sequencing technology, metagenome sequencing empowers profiling all organisms and function genes, evaluating corresponding taxonomy diversity and function diversity and isolating genetic material of single species. By combining the sequencing with the advanced profiling NostraAi system we can drag close correlations about the activity of each component of your microbiome and present a set of areas of interest and scores to consider.
