Single Step, Multiplexed, Metagenome Sequencing based Bacterial Pathogen Detection for Gastrointestinal Disturbances (Salmonella spp., C. perfringens, E. coli, Klebsiella spp.)
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal disturbances can be caused by a wide range of pathogens or an overabundance of certain microbial families. Detecting pathogenic bacteria and analyzing the overall microbial composition of the gut can help identify imbalances that may lead to dysbiosis. Current diagnostic technologies often struggle to detect more than a...

Single Step Metagenome Sequencing based Detection of SARS-CoV-2
BACKGROUND Traditional detection of SARS-CoV-2 has primarily relied on real time Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reactions (RT-PCR), a highly sensitive and specific method for identifying viral RNA. This technique is typically conducted in laboratory environments and can require several days to obtain results. Given the rapid transmission of...

Graphical User Interphase (GUI) Bioinformatic tool for the rapid detection of plant pathogens in next generation sequencing data - MiFi (R)
BACKGROUND Pathogen detection has always been a challenge in diagnostics. Current techniques like polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or bacterial/viral culture are reliable but carry some pitfalls. Primarily, PCR techniques are unable to detect more than five targets, and culturing methods are incredibly time consuming. Recently, metagenomic sequencing...
