Hunting for Helminths: short- and long-read shotgun metagenomics for parasite detection in faecal samples

2026-03-10

Abstract excerpt

Soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) pose significant challenges to public health in endemic areas, necessitating reliable methods for their detection. Shotgun metagenomics enables simultaneous detection of STHs and microbes in a sample without prior knowledge of what is present. However, validation of shotgun metagenomics with known infection intensity or across different sequencing platforms has not been carried ou...
