Benchmarking microbial DNA enrichment protocols from human intestinal biopsies
Shotgun metagenomic sequencing is a powerful tool for studying bacterial communities in their natural habitats or sites of infection, without the need for cultivation. However, low microbial signals in metagenomic sequencing can be overwhelmed by host DNA contamination, resulting in decreased sensit...
