Title: Changes in microbial and metabolic profiles of mice fed with long-term high salt diet
Version: 2 Date: 22 Aug 2024
Reviewer's report:
The manuscript titled "Changes in Microbial and Metabolic Profiles of Mice Fed a Long-Term
High Salt Diet," authored by Dini Lin et al., describes a model where mice are fed a long-
term high-salt diet (HSD). The study explores the effects of this diet on growth performance,
serum adipocytokines, and the composition and metabolites of fecal microbiota. The manuscript
is generally well-written and presented, with a methodology that is clearly detailed, ensuring
replicability. All of the figures are well generated and easy to understand. To further improve the
quality of your submission, I recommend a thorough proofreading to enhance language clarity
and precision. I also want to recommend the authors to use qiime 2 instead of qiime 1 as qiime
2 emphasizes data provenance by maintaining detailed records of all data transformations and
analyses.
