Pathogen Detection Using Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing of Plasma Samples from Patients with Sepsis in Uganda
10 Jan 2023
Abstract excerpt
The use of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in blood samples is an emerging technology for clinical microbiology labs. In this work, we performed NGS on plasma samples from a well-characterized cohort, where all samples had been previously tested by PCR for 43 pathogens. Therefore, we could compare sequencing performance against that of PCR and identify clinical correlates. A broad range of potential pathogens...
