Systematic quantification and removal of host DNA contamination in 16S rRNA gene sequencing

Quantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing is a standard tool for microbial community analysis. Challenges can occur, particularly in low‐biomass samples, when host DNA triggers off‐target amplification. Low‐biomass microbiome studies are particularly vulnerable to contamination from host DNA, which can obscure microbial signals and bias ...
