Abstract: The present teachings relate to analysis of a sample including a plurality of species. In one example, sequences of fragments of polynucleotides of the sample are obtained. A reference set comprising a plurality of sequences is obtained. An initial bin for each of the plurality of sequences of the reference set is determined based on a relative abundance of each sequence of the reference set in the sample. At least one final bin is obtained by modifying the initial bins for the plurality of sequences based on a model.
Abstract: Provided are a method of constructing a nucleic acid library, a method of determining a nucleic acid sequence of a nucleic acid sample, and a kit thereof. The method of constructing the nucleic acid library includes the following steps: subjecting a nucleic acid sample to a DOP-PCR amplification, to obtain a first PCR amplification product; subjecting the first PCR amplification product to a second PCR amplification using a DOP-Amp primer, to obtain a second PCR amplification product; and subjecting the second PCR amplification product to an adaptor-ligation PCR, to obtain a third PCR amplification product, wherein the third PCR amplification product constitutes the nucleic acid library.
Abstract: The present invention provides use of Roseburia in the preparation of composition for prevention and/or treatment of obesity related diseases. Also provided are a composition used in the treatment and prevention for obesity related diseases, comprising pharmaceutical, drink, food, and/or animal feed composition, etc; and a method of reducing body weight and/or blood glucose.
Abstract: The current invention is directed to methods for noninvasive detection of fetal genetic abnormalities by large-scale sequencing of nucleotides from maternal biological sample. Further provided are methods to remove GC bias from the sequencing results according to the difference in GC content of a chromosome. The current invention not only makes the detection much more accurate but also represents a comprehensive method for fetal aneuploidy detection including sex chromosome disorders such as XO, XXX, XXY, and XYY, etc.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for detecting Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), in particular, to a method for detecting HPV based on Solexa sequencing method.
