Contaminant Detection

Contaminant Detection is a metagenomic data quality control method that identifies and flags non-target biological or environmental sequences, such as host DNA, reagents, or environmental pollutants, which may compromise the integrity and accuracy of downstream metagenomic annotation and analysis.
