The PRIME-TR team develops Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for many steps of a microbiome study workflow. These steps include collection, processing, and storage of specimens, as well as metadata collection and analysis. These SOPs are made available to our collaborators for everyone’s benefit.
We also rely on previously established methods that allow for data harmonization. As an example, we recommend referring to the Human Microbiome Project Manual of Operating Procedures as a general guideline for specimen collection.

Our team will make SOPs and guidelines for sample collection, processing, and storage as well as for metadata collection and data analysis available through this website.
