Diagnosis of pathogens causing bacterial meningitis using Nanopore sequencing in a resource-limited setting

Abstract Aim The aim of the present study is to compare the performance of 16S rRNA Nanopore sequencing and conventional culture in detecting infectious pathogens in patients with suspected meningitis in a resource-limited setting without extensive bioinformatics expertise. Methods DNA was isolated...
