Saliva microbiome profiling by full-gene 16S rRNA Oxford Nanopore Technology versus Illumina MiSeq sequencing

Abstract excerpt

Molecular characterization of the oral microbiome is a crucial first step in experiments which aim to understand the complex dynamics of the oral microbiome or the interplay with host health and disease. Third-generation Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) offers advanced long-read sequencing capabilities, which hold promise for improved molecular characterization by distinguishing closely related microbial species...
