Article Synopsis
- Human saliva can reveal important information about both oral and overall health; this study analyzed saliva samples from healthy individuals and compared them to datasets in the Human Microbiome Project.
- Using the GENIUS system, researchers successfully identified over 175 bacterial species in saliva samples, achieving high accuracy and speed in their results.
- While both GENIUS and BLASTn analyses found major bacterial groups, GENIUS proved to be more precise in species identification and strain-level details, significantly outperforming other methods.
DNA resequencing arrays enable rapid acquisition of high-quality sequence data. This technology represents a promising platform for rapid high-resolution genotyping of microorganisms. Traditional array-based resequencing methods have relied on the use of specific PCR-amplified fragments from the query samples as hybridization targets.
