2020, Journal of Microbiological MethodsCitation Excerpt :In line with our results, they noted a loss of Gram negative- (Porphyromonas gingivalis) compared to Gram positive (Streptococcus mutans) bacteria when using MolYsis™ bacterial enrichment DNA extraction kit (Horz et al., 2008; Horz et al., 2010). Another method for host- and pathogen DNA separation utilizes Hoechst dye and ultracentrifugation in a CsCl gradient; however, this will only isolate DNA with a significantly different GC content from the host and might only be useful for isolation of a limited number of pathogen species, for example, the parasite Plasmodium, consisting of a genome that contains less than 20% GC bases (Dame and McCutchan, 1987). Moreover, Smith et al. (Smith et al., 2012) reported development of an in house whole-genome pathogen capture technique which is similar to SureSelect® (Agilent) that is a widely used enrichment capture method for NGS applications.
