Biotechnology - Massively parallel sequencing - Part 3: General requirements and guidance for metagenomics

Abstract

This document specifies general requirements and guidance for metagenomics-dedicated sample preparation, and generating and analysing metagenomics sequence data obtained from massive parallel sequencing platforms. The specified metagenomics process includes the following stages: a) sampling strategy and process, including type, storage, transportation, extraction, quality; b) nucleic acid library preparation c) design and review process including sequencing strategy and assessment; d) database construction; e) bioinformatics analysis and report f) validation and verification for bioinformatics pipeline, and database This document applies to laboratories and research organizations.
