Separating the signal from the noise in metagenomic cell-free DNA sequencing
2020-01-22
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in blood, urine and other biofluids provides a unique window into human health. A proportion of cfDNA is derived from bacteria and viruses, creating opportunities for the diagnosis of infection via metagenomic sequencing. The total biomass of microbial-derived cfDNA in clinical isolates is low, which makes metagenomic cfDNA sequencing susceptible to con...
