Clinical performance of real-time nanopore metagenomic sequencing for rapid identification of bacterial pathogens in cerebrospinal fluid: a pilot study
28 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of amplicon-based real-time metagenomic sequencing applied to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for identifying the causative agents of bacterial meningitis. We conducted a 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing using a nanopore-based platform, alongside routine polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing or bacterial culture, to compare its clinical performance in pathogen detection on CSF...
