Differential effects of frozen storage on the molecular detection of bacterial taxa that inhabit the nasopharynx

BACKGROUND: Frozen storage often precedes metagenomic analysis of biological samples; however, the freezing process can have adverse effects on microbial composition. The effect of freezing on the detection of bacteria inhabiting the infant nasopharynx, a major reservoir of bacterial pathogens, was...
