Recalibration of the Stammler_2016_16S_spikein dataset
2 May 2024
Contents
One of the main characteristics of the Stammler_2016_16S_spikein dataset is the presence of spike-in bacteria with a known fixed amount of bacterial cells. These known loads of bacteria can be used to recalibrate the raw counts of the matrix and obtain recalibrated absolute counts. In this vignette, we provide an example of how to recalibrate the counts of the count matrix based on the read counts of Salinibacter ruber. This procedure is referred to as Spike-in-based calibration to total microbial load (SCML) in Sammler et al., 2016.

library(tidyr)0.1 Import data
tse <- getBenchmarkData('Stammler_2016_16S_spikein', dryrun = FALSE)[[1]]
#> Warning: No taxonomy_tree available for Stammler_2016_16S_spikein.

counts <- assay(tse)0.2 Ids of the spike-in bacteria
Identifiers of the spiked-in bacteria have the suffix ‘XXXX’.
| Bacteria | ID | Load |
|---|---|---|
| Salinibacter ruber | AF323500XXXX | 3.0 x 108 |
| Rhizobium radiobacter | AB247615XXXX | 5.0 x 108 |
| Alicyclobacillus acidiphilus | AB076660XXXX | 1.0 x 108 |
0.3 Recalibrate based on Salinibacter ruber abundance.
This recalibration is based on the original article. The only difference is that the numbers have been rounded up to obtain counts.
## AF323500XXXX is the unique OTU corresponding to S. ruber
s_ruber <- counts['AF323500XXXX', ]
size_factor <- s_ruber/mean(s_ruber)
SCML_data <- counts
for(i in seq(ncol(SCML_data))){
SCML_data[,i] <- round(SCML_data[,i] / size_factor[i])

The counts matrix can be replaced in the original tse in order to preserve the same metadata.
