samp_collect_device
Microbiome swabs were collected by gently rubbing sterile swabs along the body site to samples, making sure to accumulate material (mucus, skin sloughing and microbes) over the entire surface of the swab. Swabs were placed into 2 mL cryovials containing 1 mL of RNA/DNA stabilizing solution and stored at -80 °C until lab processing.
