Ultrafast and Cost-Effective Pathogen Identification and Resistance Gene Detection in a Clinical Setting Using Nanopore Flongle Sequencing

Ultrafast and Cost-Effective Pathogen Identification and Resistance Gene Detection in a Clinical Setting Using Nanopore Flongle Sequencing

Rapid bacterial identification and antimicrobial resistance gene (ARG) detection are crucial for fast optimization of antibiotic treatment, especially for septic patients where each hour of delayed antibiotic prescription might have lethal consequences. This work investigates whether the Oxford Nano...
