Improved yield and accuracy for DNA extraction in microbiome studies with variation in microbial biomass

A major challenge for microbiome studies is maintaining an even and accurate DNA extraction in the presence of samples with a wide range of bacterial content. Here we compare five DNA extraction methods using replicate stool samples that were diluted to create high and low biomass samples. Our resul...
