It is important to understand the fluctuation of microbiome due to external perturbations. However, detailed microbiome response to perturbations has not been quantitatively evaluated. We analyzed high-resolution time series of the gut microbiome of mice receiving different concentrations of the antibiotics using the extended Lotka-Volterra model. By modeling of the antibiotic change based on a pharmacokinetic model, detailed temporal changes of perturbation were incorporated into the model. As a result of identifying parameters that accurately describe the kinetics and extracting robustly estimated bacterial interactions between mice, we concluded that the interbacterial network may change depending on the antibiotic pharmacokinetics.
