Tackling somatic DNA contamination in sperm epigenetic studies by Anamika Kumari, Anamika Kumari, Rajender Singh, Rajender Singh

“…Apart from incorporating simple quality checks, such as microscopic examination and somatic cell lysis buffer (SCLB) treatment, we compared the Infinium Human Methylation 450K BeadChip data for sperm and blood samples to identify the CpG sites that were highly methylated in blood samples in comparison to sperm, but were unrelated to infertility.Results and discussionThe comparison of Infinium Human Methylation 450K BeadChip data for sperm and blood samples identified 9564 CpG sites that can be used as markers for analyzing somatic DNA contamination. We have put together a comprehensive plan including evaluation under a microscope, SCLB treatment, inclusion of CpG biomarkers for sample quality evaluation, and applying a 15% cut off at the time of data analysis to completely eliminate the influence of somatic DNA contamination in sperm epigenetic studies. …”
