Characterizing the Microbiome of the Contracted Breast Capsule Using Next Generation Sequencing
15 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Recent work suggests that bacterial biofilms play a role in capsular contracture (CC). However, traditional culture techniques provide only a limited understanding of the bacterial communities present within the contracted breast. Next generation sequencing (NGS) represents an evolution of polymerase chain reaction technology that can sequence all DNA present in a given sample. OBJECTIVES: The aim of...
