 A schematic overview of FVT process. A FVT procedure on the fecal sample collected from a healthy donor: (1) homogenization of feces to remove large particles; (2) centrifugation; (3) sterile filtration through a membrane filter for removing bacterial cells and debris; (4) up-concentration with a centriprep centrifugal filter to increase viral titer; (5) the use of concentrated suspension for FVT. B Typical alterations in the gut microbiome composition of CDI patients pre- and post- FVT. These changes can result in restoration of healthy and beneficial microbiome.
