Metagenomics or Metataxonomics: Best Practice Methods to Uncover the Sinus Microbiome
Abstract
<h4>Key points</h4>Long-read-metagenomic sequencing is the best method for analyzing the sinus microbiome. 16s-rRNA-sequencing (both long and short read) results in PCR amplification bias that significantly distorts the sinus microbiome.
