Microbial diagnosis of endophthalmitis using nanopore amplicon sequencing

Objectives: We investigated whether nanopore amplicon sequencing of aqueous humor was capable of rapid pathogen identification in infectious endophthalmitis. Methods: 5 cases of culture-positive bacterial endophthalmitis and 3 cases of fungal endophthalmitis (1 culture-positive and 2 presumed) were...
