Genomic Sequencing from Sputum for Tuberculosis Disease Diagnosis, Lineage Determination, and Drug Susceptibility Prediction

Abstract excerpt

0.01). No significant differences in sensitivity and specificity of drug susceptibility predictions were seen across sequencing modalities or within each technology when stratified by smear grade. Illumina sequencing from sputum accurately identified 1/8 (rifampin) and 6/12 (isoniazid) resistant samples, compared to 2/3 (rifampin) and 3/6 (isoniazid) accurately identified with Nanopore monoplex. Lineage agreement...
