Real-time analysis of nanopore-based metagenomic sequencing from infected orthopaedic devices

Abstract Background Prosthetic joint infections are clinically difficult to diagnose and treat. Previously, we demonstrated metagenomic sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq replicates the findings of current gold standard microbiological diagnostic techniques. Nanopore sequencing offers advantages in spe...
