  • Publication number: 20210071172
    Abstract: The present invention provides novel methods, systems, tools, and kits for the simultaneous detection, identification and/or characterization of pathogenic bacteria known or suspected to infect vertebrates, more specifically humans, as well as the detection, identification and/or characterization of antimicrobial resistant genes and biomarkers and the detection of novel bacteria and/or antimicrobial resistant genes. The methods, systems, tools, and kits described herein are based upon the bacterial capture sequencing platform (BacCapSeq), a novel platform developed by the inventors. The invention also provides methods of designing and constructing the bacterial capture sequencing platform.
