The human gut is a dynamic environment, where changes in pH, oxygen, and osmolality influence microbiota composition and disease. Monitoring these environmental shifts is crucial for advancing gut health diagnostics and therapeutics, yet non-invasive monitoring tools remain limited. Genetically tractable commensals, including Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, ...
