Deep Sequencing of Plant and Animal DNA Contained within Traditional Chinese Medicines Reveals Legality Issues and Health Safety Concerns
Megan L. Coghlan,James Haile,Jayne Houston,Dáithí C. Murray,Nicole White,Paula Moolhuijzen,Matthew I. Bellgard,Michael Bunce +7 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that deep sequencing via HTS is an efficient and cost-effective way to audit highly processed TCM products and will assist in monitoring their legality and safety especially when plant reference databases become better established.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA-based faecal dietary analysis: a comparison of qPCR and high throughput sequencing approaches.
Dáithí C. Murray,Michael Bunce,B.L. Cannell,Rebecca Oliver,Jayne Houston,Nicole White,Roberto A. Barrero,Matthew I. Bellgard,James Haile +8 more
TL;DR: Using the locally threatened Little Penguin as a model organism, it is shown here that both qPCR and HTS techniques are highly correlated and produce strikingly similar quantitative estimates of fish DNA in faecal material, with no statistical difference.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hologenomic adaptations underlying the evolution of sanguivory in the common vampire bat

Bertelsen,Nicole White,Michael Bunce,Guojie Zhang,Guojie Zhang,Thomas Sicheritz-Pontén,M. P.Thomas Gilbert +31 more
TL;DR: By sequencing both its genome and gut metagenome, the authors provide a holistic view of the evolutionary adaptations that underlie this unusual diet, highlighting the value of a holistic study of both the host and its microbiota when attempting to decipher adaptations underlying radical dietary lifestyles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined DNA, toxicological and heavy metal analyses provides an auditing toolkit to improve pharmacovigilance of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).
Megan L. Coghlan,Garth L. Maker,Elly Crighton,James Haile,Dáithí C. Murray,Nicole White,Roger W. Byard,Matthew I. Bellgard,I. Mullaney,Robert D. Trengove,Richard J.N. Allcock,Christine Nash,Claire L. Hoban,Kevin Jarrett,Ross Edwards,Ian F. Musgrave,Michael Bunce +16 more
TL;DR: Next generation DNA sequencing is combined with toxicological and heavy metal screening by separation techniques and mass spectrometry to provide a comprehensive audit of traditional and alternative medicines.
Journal ArticleDOI
