Journal ArticleDOI

De novo bacterial genome sequencing: Millions of very short reads assembled on a desktop computer

TL;DR: This study proposes a de novo assembler software that generates a set of accurate contigs of several kilobases that cover most of the bacterial genome on the Illumina sequencing platform that produces millions of very short sequences that are 35 bases in length.
Journal ArticleDOI

Universal screening for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus at hospital admission and nosocomial infection in surgical patients.

TL;DR: A universal, rapid MRSA admission screening strategy did not reduce nosocomial MRSA infection in a surgical department with endemic MRSA prevalence but relatively low rates of MRSA infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of Two Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry Methods with Conventional Phenotypic Identification for Routine Identification of Bacteria to the Species Level

TL;DR: In this article, Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is applied to the problem of bacterial species identification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbiome of prebiotic-treated mice reveals novel targets involved in host response during obesity

TL;DR: Deep metagenomic sequencing analysis revealed that HFD and prebiotic treatment significantly affected the gut microbiome at different taxonomic levels and identified novel putative taxa and metabolic functions that may contribute to the development of or protection against the metabolic alterations observed during HFD feeding and HFD-Pre feeding.
