Gut Microbiome Genomic Mix

MSA-1006

NGS Standards are mock microbial communities that mimic mixed metagenomic samples. This product comprises an even mixture of genomic DNA prepared from fully sequenced, characterized, and authenticated bacterial species observed in normal and atypical gut microbial communities. Each order for this product is provided with access to run 20 analyses on One Codex, the leading bioinformatics platform for microbial genomics and metagenomics.

Specification Range: 2.4x108 genome copies/vial ± 1 log*
*Genomic DNA concentrations indicate ATCC manufacturing specifications and are provided as a reference only

Documentation

ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.

ATCC highly recommends that appropriate personal protective equipment is always used when handling vials. For cultures that require storage in liquid nitrogen, it is important to note that some vials may leak when submersed in liquid nitrogen and will slowly fill with liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, the conversion of the liquid nitrogen back to its gas phase may result in the vial exploding or blowing off its cap with dangerous force creating flying debris. Unless necessary, ATCC recommends that these cultures be stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen rather than submersed in liquid nitrogen.
