Mtp taq dna polymerase
MTP Taq DNA Polymerase is a thermostable DNA polymerase used for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of DNA. It is derived from the thermophilic bacterium Thermus aquaticus and possesses 5'-3' polymerase activity and 5'-3' exonuclease activity.

Microbiome Profiling Using Amplicon Sequencing
(5'-TCCTCCGCTTWTGWTWTGC-3') primers. The PCR was performed with MTP Taq DNA Polymerase (Sigma-Aldrich, USA), and the cycling conditions were: 94°C for 1 min, followed by 30 cycles of amplification at 94°C for 1 min, 65°C for 1 min, and 72°C for 1 min, with a final extension step of 10 min at 72°C. The sequencing was performed with a V3
Illumina MiSeq kit, as described in Poirier et al. (2018) (link) (Poirier et al., 2018) (link).
The quality of the raw data was evaluated with FastQC (Wingett & Andrews, 2018) (link) and the sequences were imported into the FROGS pipeline (Escudié et al., 2018) (link) to obtain the Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs). The sequences were filtered by length (150-500 bp)
and then pooled into OTUs with SWARM (Mahe, Rognes, Quince, de Vargas, & Dunthorn, 2014) (link) with the distance parameter of 3. Chimeras were removed with VSEARCH (Rognes, Flouri, Nichols, Quince, & Mahe, 2016) (link) and OTUs with at least 0.01% in the whole dataset were retained. The OTUs were affiliated with SILVA 132 SSU databases (Quast et al., 2013) (link) for bacteria and UNITE 8.2 for fungi (https://unite.ut.ee/). Alpha-diversity and beta-diversity analyses were performed in R Studio v.3.6.1 using the phyloseq and ggplot2 packages (v1.30.0) (McMurdie & Holmes, 2013; (link)Poirier et al., 2018) (link).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
