Bead-beating
Samples are bead-beaten to ensure tissues and cells are degraded before DNA extraction
Samples are bead-beaten to ensure tissues and cells are degraded before DNA extraction
DNA is extracted using chemical and bead-based extraction.
DNA is shared by sonication to the appropriate fragment size for short-read sequencing
Sequencing adaptors are attached to DNA molecules using ligation and sequencing indices through PCR
Multiple samples are sequenced in each sequencing lane aiming at 5x genome coverage and 8GB of metagenomic DNA
