Identification efficient: compared to traditional identification
methods , 16S rRNA Gene sequencing of bacteria more quickly and
accurately.
Dual-zone detection: a comprehensive upgrade to dual-zone (V3 +
V4) testing, obtaining sequence longer, more accurate analysis of
colonies.
Low cost: less need sequencing data , the low cost of detection.
High sensitivity: can be identified to the low abundance of bacteria.

Reads from next-gen sequencing can be BLASTED against curated
databases such as The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP), GreenGenes,
and SILVA for identification and classification.
Related sequences are “clustered” and the number of representatives of
each cluster counted. Clusters of similar sequences are referred to as
“operational taxonomic units” (OTUs).
OTU counts are summarized in a table of relative abundances for each
organism in each sample.
To date, several analysis pipelines have been developed for analysis of
16S rRNA Gene gene sequence data and two commonly used pipelines
are QIIME and Mothur.
QIIME takes users from their raw sequencing output through initial
analyses such as OTU picking, taxonomic assignment, and construction
of phylogenetic trees from representative sequences of OTUs, and
through downstream statistical analysis, visualization, and production of
publication-quality graphics.

16S rRNA Gene Sequencing – Case Studies
Analysis of raw goat milk microbiota
The microbiota of raw goat milk was determined using
next generation sequencing.
Microbiota at early and mid lactation was similar and
distinct from late lactation.
A shift in microbiota occurred at late lactation.
Milk from transgenic goats containing lysozyme had a
similar microbiota over time.
The presence of lysozyme did little to influence the
microbiota of goat milk.

family level of the milk from WT (n = 4)
and hLZ transgenic (n = 4) animals at early,
mid and late lactation using NGS (a) and
CLS (b).

16S rRNA Gene Sequencing – Case Studies
Distinct microbial communities associated with buried soils in the Siberian
tundra
Researchers surveyed the microbial community structure in
cryoturbated soils from nine soil profiles in the
northeastern Siberian tundra using high-throughput
sequencing and quantification of bacterial, archaeal and
fungal marker genes.
They found that bacterial abundances in buried topsoils
were as high as in unburied topsoils. The abiotic conditions
(low to subzero temperatures, anoxia) and the reduced
abundance of fungi likely provide a niche for bacterial,
facultative anaerobic decomposers of soil organic matter
(SOM).
This study expands the knowledge on the microbial
community structure in soils of Northern latitude
permafrost regions, and attributes the delayed
decomposition of SOM in buried soils to specific microbial
taxa, and particularly to a decrease in abundance and
activity of ECM fungi, and to the extent to which bacterial
decomposers are able to act as their functional substitutes.

16S rRNA Sequencing – Case Studies
Molecular Characterization of Clinical Isolates of Aeromonas Species from
Malaysia
Aeromonas species are common inhabitants of
aquatic environments giving rise to infections in
both fish and humans. Identification of aeromonads
to the species level is problematic and complex due
to their phenotypic and genotypic heterogeneity.
Aeromonas hydrophila or Aeromonas sp were
genetically re-identified using a combination of
previously published methods targeting GCAT, 16S
rDNA and rpoD genes.
This study emphasizes the importance of using more
than one method for the correct identification of
Aeromonas strains. The sequences of the rpoD gene
enabled the unambiguous identification of the 94
Aeromonas isolates in accordance with results of
other recent studies.

Amplicon pyrosequencing and ion torrent sequencing of wild duck eubacterial
microbiome from fecal samples
Investigated the composition of the wild duck
eubacterial microbiome from a fecal sample
revealed that the representative bacterial species
were quite distinct from a pond water sample, we
were able to classify the major operational
taxonomic units representing the majority of the
eubacterial fecal microbiome.
Bacterial species present in the analysis revealed
numerous organisms linked to human and animal
diseases including septicemia, rat bite fever, pig
mastitis, endocarditis, malar masses, genital
infections, skin lesions, peritonitis, wound
infections, septic arthritis, urocystitis, gastroenteritis
and drinking water diseases.

Eubacteria present in pond water
