Culture and amplification-free nanopore sequencing for rapid detection of pathogens and antimicrobial resistance genes from urine
This study demonstrates excellent promise in reducing the time required for informed antibiotic administration from 48 to 72 h to five hours, thereby reducing the number of empirical doses and increasing the chance of saving lives.
