TURN2 donor selection favors high alpha diversity and high predicted butyrate production. Eligible donors are ranked by microbiota profile, and only the top half are used. Donors can donate for a maximum of 12 weeks and donated FMT syringes remain quarantined until successful rescreening. TURN2 donors are screened using Netherlands Donor Feces Bank protocol, European consensus guidance, and updated infectious-risk guidance. TURN2 donor selection disfavors high Ruminococcus gnavus and Proteobacteria abundance.
