Adjusting microbiome profiles for differences in microbial load by spike-in bacteria

BACKGROUND: Next-generation 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing is widely used to determine the relative composition of the mammalian gut microbiomes. However, in the absence of a reference, this does not reveal alterations in absolute abundance of specific operational taxonomic units if microbial loa...
