Dr. Cardoso of the National Institute of Respiratory Diseases (Mexico City, Mexico) uses 16S rRNA sequencing to understand how the gut microbiome composition and its potential impact on HIV. She also discusses her use of the new Ion 16S™ Metagenomics Kit to classify the gut microbime composition and how the use of 7 variable regions compares to the single variable region she was using previously.
We’ve written before about 16S metagenomics here as well as this post regarding a recent platform evaluation. Get more information about the Ion 16S Metagenomics Solution here.
