Overview The Metagenomics (META) Unit identifies the quality and quantity of the microorganisms present in an environment (microbiota) through the analysis of their genomes (microbiome) and transcriptomes (meta-transcriptomics). The Unit works in synergy with other units to provide a broad range of analysis starting from “out-of-the-box” first-level profiling of microbiota to high level study of meta-genomes/meta-transcriptomess to highlight the functional capacity of the organisms. Services To reserve these services, it is necessary to be registered with the "Agendo" centralized management system. If you are already registered, log in to the system https://upo.agendo.science/ Currently available services comprise the sequencing of the 16S rDNA gene to profile the microbiome community in a complex biological sample. 16S rDNA regions: V1-V2-V3 or V3-V4-V6 The service comprises: DNA extraction, DNA Quality Control, Library preparation, Sequening, Data analysis and Report. The reporting consists on:
For specific purposes, bacteria identification can be performed by MALDI TOF analysis (Biotyper app). Costs:
(costs may vary for high number of samples > 80)
Samples comparison Data can also be analyzed to
compare samples collected in different conditions or at different timepoints.
Costs:
Note: the price does not depend on number of samples. Service traceability Analysis and result layouts are provided by proprietary software. Contacts |
