Project description:Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) are critical points for public health for persistently remaining microorganisms after treatment may pose a risk. This study aimed to conduct microbial metagenomic analyses on waters from both DWTPs and WWTPs under the Istanbul Water and Sewerage Administration (ISKI). In this study a total of 52 samples were included, comprising 18 samples from DWTPs and 34 from WWTPs. All water samples underwent pre-isolation filtration. DNA isolation was conducted using filter material, followed by library preparation and sequencing on a NovaSeq 6000 instrument following the manufacturer's guidelines.
