Combining CRISPR-Cas12a-Based Technology and Metagenomics Next Generation Sequencing: A New Paradigm for Rapid and Full-Scale Detection of Microbes in Infectious Diabetic Foot Samples

Abstract excerpt

Introduction: Diabetic foot infections (DFIs) pose a huge challenge for clinicians. Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), is one of the most significant pathogens of DFI. Early pathogen identification will greatly benefit the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. However, existing diagnostic methods are not effective in early detection. Methods: We developed an assay that...
