---|---|
DNA Recovery | Greater than 85% of total bacterial DNA is effectively recovered with greater than 90% of eukaryotic host DNA depleted. |
Processing Time | Bacterial DNA is isolated from a single sample in less than 90 minutes. |
Required Equipment | Microcentrifuge, vortex, tube rotator, and high-speed cell disruptor (recommended). |
Sample Input | Up to 200 µl liquid sample. |
Sample Type | Saliva, swabs, and bodily fluids from eukaryotic hosts with intact (living) bacteria cells. |
Resources
Q1: When should I use this kit?
Studies where shotgun metagenomic sequencing will be used to produce the microbial profile of a sample high in host DNA. To reduce the number of reads that will go to the host DNA, host DNA must first be depleted.
Q2: Is this kit compatible with feces samples?
Feces have not been validated. Stool from a healthy donor is not expected to contain a high abundance of host DNA. However, if the stool is from a donor with a bowel related illness (e.g. ulcerative colitis), then host depletion may be useful.
Q3: What sample types are compatible with this kit?
Saliva, throat swabs, sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL).
Samples that are not compatible: Blood, solid tissues and samples in DNA/RNA Shield are not compatible.
Q4: Can I use the HostZero Microbial DNA Kit to deplete host DNA from viral samples?
No, the HostZero kit cannot be used to deplete host DNA from viral samples. Viral DNA will be removed with host DNA during the depletion step. The kit can only be used for host depletion from microbial samples.
