Small RNA profiling of low biomass samples: identification and removal of contaminants

Abstract Background Sequencing-based analyses of low-biomass samples are known to be prone to misinterpretation due to the potential presence of contaminating molecules derived from laboratory reagents and environments. DNA contamination has been previously reported, yet contamination with RNA is us...
