Abstract The advent of next generation sequencing technologies has enabled the characterization genetic content entire communities organisms, including those in clinical specimens, without prior culturing. MinION from Oxford Nanopore Technologies offers real-time, direct long DNA fragments directly samples. aim this study was to assess ability unbiased, genome-wide, long-read, shotgun using identify Pneumocystis jirovecii respiratory tract specimens and characterize associated mycobiome....

The microbiome has emerged as a key determinant of human health and reproduction, with recent evidence suggesting dysbiotic is implicated in adverse perinatal outcomes. existing research been limited by the sample collection timing, cohort design, lack data on preconception microbiome. This prospective, longitudinal study will recruit 2000 Australian women, order to fully explore role development Participants are enrolled for maximum 7 years, from 1 year preconception, through 5 years...

Pneumocystis jirovecii is associated with non-noxious colonization or severe pneumonia in immunocompromised hosts. Epidemiological investigations have been hampered by the lack of a standardized typing scheme. Thus, only partial molecular data on Spanish P. cases are available. Recently, new ISHAM consensus multilocus sequence scheme (MLST) targeting β-TUB, mt26S, CYB, and SOD publicly accessible database has launched to overcome this problem. The epidemiology from patients either colonized...
