Mitigation and detection of putative microbial contaminant reads from long-read metagenomic datasets

2024-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Metagenomic sequencing of clinical samples has significantly enhanced our understanding of microbial communities. However, microbial contamination and host-derived DNA remain a major obstacle to accurate data interpretation. Here, we present a methodology called ‘Stop-Check-Go’ for detecting and mitigating contaminants in metagenomic datasets obtained from neonatal patient samples (nasal and rectal swabs). This me...
