    Donor-Participants species probability

    Hi all,
    We are doing a microbiome study with FMT (Fecal Microbiota transplant), and I have a statistic question about something we found.

    Background
    In the experiment there are 2 donors and 11 recipients.
    Donor 1 group are 6 participants
    Donor 2 group are 5 participants

    Result of FMT
    In Donor 1 group we have 3 responders, and 3 non responders
    In Donor 2 group we have 0 responders, and 5 non responders

    We found that there is only one species that is in Donor 1 and in the 3 responders, but not found in the rest.
    We suspect that this species can be a marker for matching Donor-Participant for being a responder.
    We have 200 species in all the samples together.

    Question
    I would like to calculate the probability for this, and I believe Bayes probability is the way.
    I think that I know how to ask the question, but not to do the calculation and I will appreciate your help:

    What is the likelihood to be this species that found only in Donor 1 and in his responders, when I have only 3 responders out of 11 participants and 2 Donors?

    Thanks for the reading, and I hope to understand it ��

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2




    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
