Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Blood:<br>Analysis of lipid species and bile acids by mass spectrometry.<br>Analysis of feces:<br>Analysis of bacterial communities by 16S rRNA sequencing. Analysis of bile acids by mass spectrometry. Collection of clinical chemistry parameters relevant to lipid metabolism.<br>By combining these data, we try to find a correlation between different microbiota species and blood lipid parameters and bile acids in relation to dietary cholesterol.<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The generated Data are merged to find a correlation between microbiota and the cholesterol load as single aim, therefore a secondary outcome cannot be defined in this case.
