Application of Amplicon Metagenomics to Identify Fungal Pathogens in Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Samples: Proof of Concept in Animals with Fungal Pathologies

Application of Amplicon Metagenomics to Identify Fungal Pathogens in Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Samples: Proof of Concept in Animals with Fungal Pathologies

The identification of fungal pathogens in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues is an unmet need in human and animal medicine, and sequence-agnostic approaches are needed to identify emerging pathogens. Eleven FFPE biopsy specimens with etiologic diagnoses of fungal disease based on standa...
