Each sample was indexed and cleaned for library preparation per manufacturer’s instructions (Illumina). Twenty-five microliters of supernatant from each sample was collected for sequencing. Samples were fragment-sized using either a BioAnalyzer DNA 1000 chip (Agilent, October cohort) or a TapeStation 4200 (Agilent, May cohort) and quantitated using KAPA Library Quant Kit (Illumina) Universal qPCR Mix (KAPA Biosystems). Samples were diluted and multiplexed into a single pool using equal volumes. For the May cohort samples, an initial nano flow cell on a MiSeq Sequencing System (Illumina), which sequenced 150 cycles in each read direction for a total of 300 cycles each, was run to normalize the sample pool. Finally, a titration with 7% PhiX was used to cluster one V3 flow cell on a MiSeq Sequencing System (Illumina), which was sequenced for 300 cycles in each read direction for a total of 600 cycles each.

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.
