This is an update Jason Hawrelak Criteria for Healthy Gut. His criteria is based on percentages and used by medical practitioners around the world. I have three significant collections of samples and decided to find out how these percentages translate to percentile for each lab.

They are similar and not similar. For example 50% of people will have low Akkermansia using uBiome while Biomesight increases it to 77%. Alistipes — are never out of range for Biomesight while 90% of people using uBiome would be too high.

Taxa Name	Taxa Rank	Percentage	uBiome Percentile	Ombre Percentile	Biomesight Percentile
Akkermansia	genus	1 – 5	48 – 80	71 – 91	77 – 93
Alistipes	genus	0 – 0.3	0 – 10	0 – 33	0 – 100

Bacteroidia	class	0 – 35	0 – 24	0 – 40	0 – 45
Bifidobacterium	genus	2.5 – 5	78 – 91	78 – 87	90 – 95
Bilophila wadsworthia	species	0 – 0.15	0 – 32	0 – 43	0 – 44
Blautia	genus	5 – 10	15 – 60	32 – 72	24 – 69
Desulfovibrio	genus	0 – 0.15	0 – 46	0 – 42	0 – 72
Escherichia coli	species	0 – 0.1	0 – 100	0 – 75	0 – 88

Methanobrevibacter	genus	0 – 0.01	0 – 7	0 – 33	0 – 33
Oxalobacter	genus	0.01 – 1	0 – 100	38 – 100	35 – 100
Prevotella	genus	0 – 25	0 – 100	0 – 89	0 – 88
Pseudomonadota	phylum	0 – 4	0 – 52	0 – 76	0 – 54

Ruminococcus	genus	0 – 15	0 – 100	0 – 98	10- 95

This post is intended to illustrate that percentages cannot be determined by one lab and applied to another. Percentile appears to be more robust.
