A theoretical and generalized approach for the assessment of the sample-specific limit of detection for clinical metagenomics
26 Dec 2020
Abstract excerpt
Metagenomics is a powerful tool to identify novel or unexpected pathogens, since it is generic and relatively unbiased. The limit of detection (LOD) is a critical parameter for the routine application of methods in the clinical diagnostic context. Although attempts for the determination of LODs for metagenomics next-generation sequencing (mNGS) have been made previously, these were only applicable for specific...
