🌍 What do you think the microbiome of your city looks like? 🌱 We’re thrilled to see Zymo Research technologies in action with the groundbreaking MetaSUB Project, exploring the hidden microbial world in cities across the globe. This research is crucial for improving city planning and public health. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look! Our team recently visited the MetaSUB project in Tokyo, Japan, where we witnessed firsthand the incredible work being done to map the urban microbiome. This year’s meeting highlighted the expanded scope of the MetaSUB project, from studying microbes in the air to analyzing their functional properties in extreme environments. We even learned about the exciting work being done by the 2 Frontiers Project, a MetaSUB spinoff focused on harnessing microbes that thrive in extreme conditions to tackle climate change and environmental pollution. In this project, Zymo Research’s DNA/RNA Shield (https://lnkd.in/g9f3u_KM) is playing a vital role as the transport medium, ensuring stability and accuracy during sample transport. We’re also supporting centralized extraction and uniform processing methods. We’re honored to contribute to this important and fascinating initiative. Stay tuned for more updates on the discoveries ahead! #Microbiome #Metagenomics #UrbanMicrobiomes #PublicHealth #MetaSUB #NGS
