Challenges in benchmarking metagenomic profilers [PDF]
Accurate microbial identification and abundance estimation are crucial for metagenomics analysis. Various methods for classification of metagenomic data and estimation of taxonomic profiles, broadly referred to as metagenomic profilers, have been ...

A new method for extracting skin microbes allows metagenomic analysis of whole-deep skin [PDF]
In the last decade, an extensive effort has been made to characterize the human microbiota, due to its clinical and economic interests. However, a metagenomic approach to the skin microbiota is hampered by the high proportion of host DNA that is ...
