Great Science Requires Controls
Get your standards for FREE — Made possible by the Microbiomics Standards & Controls Initiative (M-SCI)
Ensure NGS accuracy and data reproducibility with the #1 cited microbiome standards.
The Microbiomics Standards & Controls Initiative
What are microbiome standards and controls?
Microbiome standards are mixed-cell communities or isolated DNA composed in known concentrations, allowing for accurate data interpretation.
Why give away free standards and controls?
Leaders in the field of microbiomics have recognized that the lack of well-defined microbial standards and
controls has held back research progress.
Zymo Research is passionate about data quality and reproducibility, so, in an effort to make well-defined
standards and controls available to all researchers, the ZymoBIOMICS Microbial Standards and Spike-in
Controls will be offered to all free of charge!
