Description
The rapid advancements of sequencing technologies has lead to an explosion of studies on the human microbiome. There is currently no standardised methodology for studying the human salivary (oral) microbiome for metagenomic sequencing platforms.
Here we evaluate commonly used protocols for their suitability for studying the salivary microbiome
Importance of method standardisation
Saliva collection techniques
DNA extraction standardisation
Salivary metagenomics
Metagenomic analysis pipeline
