PMA treated and control samples of river water and biofilm
These samples have been collected from the Raritan River in New Jersey. Sample splits were treated with Propidium monoazide (PMA) dye to reduce signal from "non-viable" cell DNA. Control samples were not treated with PMA dye and represented the "total" community. Multiple displacement amplification (MDA) was done on all samples before sequencing.
