16S rRNA sequencing of fecal microbiome in isoproterenol and polystyrene nanoplastic treated mice
Paired-end 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing was performed on fecal pellets collected at sacrifice from male mice assigned to six groups: Control, isoproterenol (ISO), 100 nm polystyrene nanoplastics (PS), 1000 nm PS, ISO+100 nm PS, and ISO+1000 nm PS. Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 2000 platform. These data support analyses of gut microbiota changes in a mouse model used to study myocardial injury/fibrosis under ISO and PS exposures.
