The investigators aim to evaluate complete colonoscopies from 10 healthy subjects. This study is used as a first explorative study of how the human gut microbiota is distributed along the lower gastrointestinal tract. No comparable studies in an uncleansed bowel have been performed so far. The number of subjects is based on other studies investigating the microbial composition of mucosal- and faecal-associated microbiota in which a sample size of 10 was enough to detect a difference. An equal number of men and women will be recruited. Drop-outs will be replaced.
