Abstract: A collector device of environmental exposure is provided. This device may be used to collect and, after technical upgrade, monitor environmental exposure in personal and stationary settings. By coupling with advanced genomic analysis and chemical analysis technologies, the device and its accompanying methodology are capable of detecting environmental agents of diverse nature, many of which could pose health risks if going unaware of or uncontrolled. This type of information provides much needed clues to reconstruct and pinpoint the course of disease etiology at both personal and epidemic scales. By combining personal exposome and personal omics analyses, we can recapitulate with the intention to then prescribe treatment plans with unprecedented precision.

Abstract: A presumption-free pipeline is provided that employs experimental and analytic modules to profile samples, including clinical samples, regardless of the complexity and abundance. The experimental and analytic modules can work independently of each other if the user so desired. The experimental module for ultra-sensitive DNA/RNA extraction and sequencing can be used to extract information from any samples to feed into analytical pipelines chosen by the user. Alternatively, the analytic module for universal species detection can be fed with data generated with other experimental pipelines and different sequencing platforms.
