Feces were collected from individual mice. Genomic DNA was extracted from 2 biological replicates of fecal pellets using the DNeasy PowerLyzer PowerSoil kit (Qiagen). Concentration of Pc and Bt DNA was assessed using species-specific qPCR primers (Key Resources Table). qPCR was performed using the Brilliant III, Ultra Fast SYBR Green QPCR Master Mix and a Bio Rad CFX thermocycler. Genomic DNA from Bt H-2622 and Pc H-2477 were used to generate a standard curve for each primer pair. The standard curves were used to calculate the absolute quantity of Bt or Pc DNA in the sample. The efficiency value (E) for each primer pair was calculated as 10(1/−slope) of log10(DNA input) against Ct value. qPCR index was calculated using this equation: E−Ct primer pair.

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.
