Comparison of clinical metagenomics with 16S rDNA Sanger sequencing for the bacteriological diagnosis of culture-negative samples

2024-06-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Currently, diagnosis of bacterial infections is based on culture, possibly followed by the amplification and sequencing (Sanger method) of the 16S rDNA - encoding gene when cultures are negative. Clinical metagenomics (CMg), i.e. the sequencing of a sample’s entire nucleic acids, may allow for the identification of bacteria not detected by conventional methods. Here, we tested the performance o...
