Protocol benchmarks with mock-community controls
Benchmark and reference cohorts · collection id protocol-benchmarks-mock-controls
Human stool studies that sequenced a defined mock community (ZymoBIOMICS or in-house standards) alongside real samples to compare DNA extraction kits, library protocols or 16S versus shotgun profiling — useful as positive controls and for bias estimation.
