It is well established that the adhesion of enteric, oral and respiratory bacteria is required for colonization and, once bound, the bacteria are less

However, the screening of oral metagenomic samples can be hindered by high animal host DNA content. This study evaluated methods for the reduction of human DNA concentrations within oral metagenomic samples.
