Akkermansia Test

Unisex

GetTested’s Akkermansia Test is an at home stool test that measures two beneficial gut bacteria: Akkermansia muciniphila and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii.

These bacteria are studied for their roles in gut barrier function, microbial balance, inflammation regulation and metabolic health. Low levels may be associated with changes in the gut environment, including reduced microbial diversity or altered intestinal barrier support.

By measuring these specific bacteria, the test provides targeted insight into selected parts of the gut microbiome and can support more informed decisions around nutrition, probiotics and lifestyle choices.

About Akkermansia Test

Gut Bacteria, Intestinal Barrier, and Microbiome Balance

The gut microbiome consists of trillions of microorganisms that influence processes related to digestion, immune signaling, inflammatory balance, and intestinal barrier function. Certain bacterial species are considered especially important because of their role in maintaining a healthy gut environment.

This test focuses on Akkermansia muciniphila and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, two well studied bacteria associated with the intestinal lining and production of beneficial microbial compounds such as butyrate. These bacteria are commonly studied in relation to gut microbiome diversity and gut barrier integrity.

By measuring the levels of these bacteria, the test provides targeted insight into key components of the gut microbiome.
