title: C.difficile-infected gerbil gut microbiota 16S sequencing
design: Genomic DNAs of the intestinal contents were extracted using the PowerSoil DNA Isolation Kit (MO BIO, Cat. No. 12888). Sequencing libraries were generated using the TruSeq DNA PCR-Free Sample Preparation Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) and sequenced using the NextSeq 2000 platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA)
