Pathologically Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is in chronic complex inflammatory gut pathological condition.

The DNA of microbiota will be investigated with samples of stool, colon tissue. The aim is to establish a cohort group for IBD (1), to make a database on cohort group characteristics such as endoscopic findings, disease severity, epidemiology, and prognosis (2), to analyze gut flora in IBD patients (3).
