Abstract
Antibiotic overuse has promoted the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) with significant health and economic consequences. Genome sequencing reveals the widespread presence of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in diverse microbial environments. Hence, surveillance of resistance reservoirs, like the rarely explored oral microbiome, is necessary to combat AMR. Here, we characterise the development of the paediatric oral resistome and investigate its role in dental caries in 221 twin children (124 females and 97 males) sampled at three time points over the first decade of life. From 530 oral metagenomes, we identify 309 ARGs, which significantly cluster by age, with host genetic effects detected from infancy onwards. Our results suggest potential mobilisation of ARGs increases with age as the AMR associated mobile genetic element, Tn916 transposase was co-located with more species and ARGs in older children. We find a depletion of ARGs and species in dental caries compared to health. This trend reverses in restored teeth. Here we show the paediatric oral resistome is an inherent and dynamic component of the oral microbiome, with a potential role in transmission of AMR and dysbiosis.

Abstract
The human oral cavity is a major point of entry for microorganisms, many of which live and multiply in the mouth. In addition, it provides an accessible site for sampling compared to other parts of the body; however, caution should be taken during oral sampling as many factors contribute to the microbial diversity in a site-dependent manner. The accessibility of the oral cavity and its microbial diversity emphasize the crucial need to avoid cross-contamination during the sampling procedure. In this chapter, we describe various detailed oral sampling procedures. These methods include supragingival dental plaque sampling, subgingival dental plaque sampling, oral mucosal sampling, and endodontic sampling methods for extracted teeth or in the patient's mouth. The proposed protocols provide tips to avoid contamination between different oral sources of bacteria and possible alternatives to the tools used.

Abstract
With this review, we aim to increase the quality standards for clinical studies with microbiome as an output parameter. We critically address the existing body of evidence for good quality practices in oral microbiome studies based on 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. First, we discuss the usefulness of microbiome profile analyses. Is a microbiome study actually the best approach for answering the research question? This is followed by addressing the criteria for the most appropriate study design, sample size, and the necessary data (study metadata) that should be collected. Next, we evaluate the available evidence for best practices in sample collection, transport, storage, and DNA isolation. Finally, an overview of possible sequencing options (eg, 16S rRNA gene hypervariable regions, sequencing platforms), processing and data interpretation approaches, as well as requirements for meaningful data storage, sharing, and reporting are provided.

Storage media and not extraction method has the biggest impact on recovery of bacteria from the oral microbiome. Sci Rep 2019; 9:14968.

Abstract
Next Generation sequencing has greatly progressed the exploration of the oral microbiome’s role in dental diseases, however, there has been little focus on the effect of sample storage conditions and their interaction with DNA extraction method. Dental plaque samples collected from 20 healthy participants were pooled and stored in either 75% ethanol or Bead solution for up to 6-months at −80 °C, prior to DNA extraction with either QIAamp (non-bead beating) or PowerSoil (bead-beating) kit, followed by Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA gene. We found that storage media and not extraction method had the biggest influence on the diversity and abundance of the oral microbiota recovered. Samples stored in Bead solution, independent of the extraction kit, retrieved higher diversity (PowerSoil p = 1.64E-07, QIAamp p = 0.0085) and had dissimilar overall ecologies as indicated by lower level of shared diversity (PowerSoil p = 0.0000237, QIAamp p = 0.0088). Comparatively, samples stored in Bead solution and extracted with PowerSoil recovered a higher abundance of Streptococcus species. These data indicate that Bead solution can preserve the oral microbiome in dental plaque reliably, for periods of up to 6-months at −80 °C, and is compatible, with either a bead-beating or non-bead beating DNA extraction method.

Assessment of the impact of different fecal storage protocols on the microbiota diversity and composition: a pilot study. BMC Microbiol 2019; 19:145.

Abstract
Background Fecal samples are currently the most commonly studied proxy for gut microbiota. The gold standard of sample handling and storage for microbiota analysis is maintaining the cold chain during sample transfer and immediate storage at − 80 °C. Gut microbiota studies in large-scale, population-based cohorts require a feasible sample collection protocol. We compared the effect of three different storage methods and mock shipment: immediate freezing at − 80 °C, in 95% ethanol stored at room temperature (RT) for 48 h, and on blood collection card stored at RT for 48 h, on the measured composition of fecal microbiota of eight healthy, female volunteers by sequencing the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene on an Illumina MiSeq. Results Shared operational taxonomic units (OTUs) between different methods were 68 and 3% for OTUs > 0.01 and < 0.01% mean relative abundance within each group, respectively. α and β-diversity measures were not significantly impacted by different storage methods. With the exception of Actinobacteria, fecal microbiota profiles at the phylum level were not significantly affected by the storage method. Actinobacteria was significantly higher in samples collected on card compared to immediate freezing (1.6 ± 1.1% vs. 0.4 ± 0.2%, p = 0.005) mainly driven by expansion of Actinobacteria relative abundance in fecal samples stored on card in two individuals. There was no statistically significant difference at lower taxonomic levels tested. Conclusion Consistent results of the microbiota composition and structure for different storage methods were observed. Fecal collection on card could be a suitable alternative to immediate freezing for fecal microbiota analysis using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing.
