Sensitive Identification of Bacterial DNA in Clinical Specimens by Broad-Range 16S rRNA Gene Enrichment
6 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
genomes from a background of 100 ng of human DNA, providing 19- to 189-fold greater sensitivity for identifying bacterial sequences than standard shotgun metagenomic sequencing, and is able to successfully recover organisms from across the eubacterial tree of life. Application of 16S Capture to a proof-of-principle case series demonstrated its ability to identify bacterial species that were consistent with...
