High Throughput Sequencing (HTS) / Next-generation sequencing (NGS)

Researchers developed high-throughput methods to study bacterial diversity.
Alou et al. 2021

Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a technology that detects microorganisms in various biological and other matrices. It identifies both known and novel phyla and strains. The technology generates large amounts of metagenomic shotgun data.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) facilitates culture-independent sampling of microorganisms in an area, allowing for both taxonomic and functional annotation. This is particularly important for the surveillance of microorganisms as they acquire [Antimicrobial resistance (AMR)](brain://HfsNDlsXJEGufK…
