Description

This assay analytical validation and performance report describes the methods used to validate the 16S V4 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequencing assay for microbiome analysis of frozen stool specimens collected from healthy donors and patients who underwent stem cell transplants. The document also presents data supporting the reported accuracy, inter- and intra-assay reproducibility, and analytical accuracy. It is used by a Cancer Immune Monitoring and Analysis Center (CIMAC) at the MD Anderson Cancer Center. It is a product of the CIMAC and Cancer Immunologic Data Center Network (CIMAC-CIDC Network; https://dctd.cancer.gov/ResearchNetworks/cimacs_cidc_network.htm), a Cancer Moonshot Initiative.
