Same-day diagnostic and surveillance data for tuberculosis via whole genome sequencing of direct respiratory samples

2016-12-19

Abstract excerpt

Routine full characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) is culture-based, taking many weeks. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can generate antibiotic susceptibility profiles to inform treatment, augmented with strain information for global surveillance; such data could be transformative if provided at or near point of care. We demonstrate a low-cost DNA extraction method for TB WGS direct from patient samp...
