MTP-101P

MTP-101P is comprised of standardized dose of total fecal microbiota purified from the stool of healthy donors. Donors are carefully screened via health status questionnaires, physical examinations, reviews of comprehensive medical history, clinical laboratory evaluations, serologic and genomic tests for infectious diseases and metabolic health, and stool-related pathogen testing. The material from the donors is purified to remove the majority of non-bacterial material, washed, lyophilized, and provided to the patient in a sachet contained within a mixing bottle.
