What does 16S rRNA gene-targeted next generation sequencing contribute to the study of infective endocarditis in valve tissue?
2021-01-30
Abstract excerpt
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a severe and life-threatening disease. Identification of infectious etiology is essential for establishing the appropriate antimicrobial treatment and decreasing mortality. The aim of this study was to explore potential utility of metagenomics for improving microbiological diagnosis of IE. In this work, next-generation sequencing (NGS) of V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was perform...
