First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for establishing a non-human obesity animal model that develops obesity, the method comprising, inoculating a non-human germ-free animal with Enterobacter cloacea 29, and feeding the inoculated animal with a diet having at least 34.9% of fat content for a period of time to provide the non-human obesity animal model. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-human obesity animal model manifests a metabolic syndrome comprising at least one of obesity, insulin resistance, or chronic inflammation. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-human obesity animal model is a mouse, a rat, a rabbit, a monkey, a pig, or a Guinean pig. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inoculating the non-human germ-free animal comprises inoculating the non-human germ-free animal by at least one of intragastric administration, topical administration, or oral administration. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the inoculating the non-human germ-free animal comprises inoculating the non-human germ-free animal with at least 10 2 bacteria cells.
