restricted

Other constraints

The dataset has been formally approved by BGS for access by external clients under a BGS Digital Data Licence, issued via BGS's IPR Section. The dataset must not be provided to, or be accessible by, an external client until the IPR Section confirms that signed licence documentation is in place. Refer to the IPR Section (DigitalLE@bgs.ac.) if further advice is required.. Constraint applies until 2022-12-31

Other constraints

Either: (i) the dataset is made freely available, e.g. via the Internet, for a restricted category of use (e.g. educational use only); or (ii) the dataset has not been formally approved by BGS for access and use by external clients under licence, but its use may be permitted under alternative formal arrangements; or (iii) the dataset contains 3rd party data or information obtained by BGS under terms and conditions that must be consulted in order to determine the permitted usage of the dataset. Refer to the BGS staff member responsible for the creation of the dataset if further advice is required. He / she should be familiar with the composition of the dataset, particularly with regard to 3rd party IPR contained in it, and any resultant use restrictions. This staff member should revert to the IPR Section (ipr@bgs.ac.uk) for advice, should the position not be clear. ipr@bgs.ac Either: (i) the dataset is made freely available, e.g. via the Internet, for a restricted category of use (e.g. educational use only); or (ii) the dataset has not been formally approved by BGS for access and use by external clients under licence, but its use may be permitted under alternative formal arrangements; or (iii) the dataset contains 3rd party data or information obtained by BGS under terms and conditions that must be consulted in order to determine the permitted usage of the dataset.

Statement

High throughput isolation of microbial genomic DNA from each <250 um citizen-collected vacuum dust sample was performed using a DNeasy 96 PowerSoil Pro Kit (384) (QIAGEN). Metagenomic library preparation was performed using Nextera XT DNA Library Preparation Kit. Sequencing was performed in-house (Northumbria University) using an Illumina NextSeq with a Mid-Output 300 cycle kit (150 base paired end reads), to facilitate a sequencing depth of 10M reads per sample. A negative reagent controls were included to ensure sterility throughout the processing and sequencing steps. Adaptor sequence trimming and quality filtering was performed with TrimGalore. Reads shorter than 100bp were removed in addition to sequences aligning to the human genome (removed using BBMap). After sequence filtering and quality control, a median/mean 4419820/4784250 sequence reads per sample remained.
