Our case report highlights how rapid @nanopore sequencing helps us out in our Hospital @UKJ_Jena when encountering inconclusive VITEK results. We only needed 7.5 h from the isolate to sequence results using standard kits and sequencing protocols.

Our research with @nanopore 's adaptive sampling has been published (https://t.co/yCIJSgX44S). 'Human host depletion' in clinical metagenomes resulted in increased total sequencing depth, thus higher taxonomic profiling sensitivity while preserving the microbial composition.
First @Nanopore run with new Q20+ chemistry, R.10.4 flowcell, and ten bacteria isolates from patients had a high throughput (18 Gb)! Looks pretty good. I wonder if one could stop the pore drop after the two days.
Relatively low microbial DNA to human host DNA ratio can compromise the resolution of microbiome metagenomic analysis. Marquet & team demonstrate how adaptive sampling can enrich low microbial material, increasing sequencing depth for metagenomic samples: https://t.co/Z56gfkbkKu
