The mucosa‐associated microbiota appears to be highly relevant to host–microbe interactions in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Thus, precise characterisation of the mucosa‐associated microbiota may provide important insights for diagnostic and therapeutic development. However, for technical reasons, mucosal biopsies taken during standard endoscopic procedures are potentially contaminated by GI luminal contents.
