More flexibility, same stress-free experience. 🙌

Patients can now collect Microba samples on a Sunday, giving greater freedom to complete testing in a way that fits busy lifestyles and hectic schedules.

Simply collect your sample on a Sunday, store it as shown in the sample kit instructions and post it back to our lab on Monday. 🔬

Uncover the oral-gut connection for better care 🔃

Assessing oral species in the gut can reveal important insights about health including intestinal inflammation.

We’ve added the Oral Species biomarker to all Microbiome Explorer reports to support faster, more confident assessment of oral-origin microbes in the gut.

The new Oral Species biomarker will allow you to:

+ Detect oral species in the gut, identifying and interpreting over 410 oral-origin species
+ Assess how oral-origin microbes relate to intestinal inflammation
+ Measure oral species with precision using the validated Oral Species Index
+ Interpret results with confidence and apply evidence-based insights

By making the invisible visible, Microba delivers better science and better insights for better patient care. 🌿

Better science. Better insights. Better care. 🌿

At Microba, we believe in the power of the microbiome to shape a healthier future.

Our mission has always been to make the science clear and the path to better health, easier to navigate.

That’s why we’ve unified Co-Biome, Invivo testing and Microba into one brand, Microba, so the connection between science, care, and clarity is easier to see, understand, and share. ✨

So, why now? Because better is possible. Because better means more confidence, more freedom and ultimately, happier, healthier lives.

Microbiome Explorer™: the evolution of MetaXplore 🔬

We’ve refreshed our product names to make them simpler and clearer – without changing the clinic-grade microbiome test you know and trust.

MetaXplore will now be known as Microba Microbiome Explorer™, available in three variants:
+ Microba Microbiome Explorer™ – Essentials*
+ Microba Microbiome Explorer™ – Extended*
+ Microba Microbiome Explorer™ – Comprehensive

Whilst the names have changed, the test’s complex microbiome science, comprehensive insights, collaboration and support tool remain unchanged.

At Microba, we believe clarity and confidence deliver better results. 🙌
