Targeted metagenomics using next generation sequencing in laboratory diagnosis of culture negative endophthalmitis
1 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
To study the feasibility of 16S rRNA metagenomics using next generation sequencing (NGS) along with broad range PCR assay for 762 bp region of 16S rRNA gene with Sanger's sequencing, in microbial diagnosis of culture negative endophthalmitis. Vitreous fluid from 16 culture negative and one culture positive endophthalmitis patients, admitted to a tertiary care hospital were processed for targeted metagenomics. NGS...
