A systematic NGS-based approach for contaminant detection and functional inference

2019-08-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Microbial contamination impedes successful biological and biomedical research. Computational approaches utilizing next-generation sequencing (NGS) data offer promising diagnostics to assess the presence of contaminants. However, as host cells are often contaminated by multiple microorganisms, these approaches require careful attention to intra- and interspecies sequence similarities, which hav...
