Methodology challenges in studying human gut microbiota – effects of collection, storage, DNA extraction and next generation sequencing technologies
23 Mar 2018
Abstract excerpt
The information on microbiota composition in the human gastrointestinal tract predominantly originates from the analyses of human faeces by application of next generation sequencing (NGS). However, the detected composition of the faecal bacterial community can be affected by various factors including experimental design and procedures. This study evaluated the performance of different protocols for collection and...
