Ubiquitous microbial contaminants associated with scientific ocean drilling

2025-01-31

Abstract excerpt

Deep-sea subsurface samples typically have low microbial biomass, making them more susceptible to contamination. Potential contaminants can be introduced during any step of the scientific process, including drilling (contamination from the drilling fluid and lubricants, seawater), sample preparation (contamination from air and human handling), and DNA extraction, amplification, and sequencing (contamination from r...
