Abstract Background SARS-CoV-2 has been detected not only in respiratory secretions, but also in stool collections. Here were sought to identify SARS-CoV-2 by enrichment next-generation sequencing (NGS) from fecal samples, and to utilize whole genome analysis to characterize SARS-CoV-2 mutational variations in COVID-19 patients. Results Study participants underwent testing for SARS-CoV-2 from fecal samples by… Continue reading Detection of SARS-CoV-2 from patient fecal samples by whole genome sequencing

Introduction to the Microbiome The human microbiome constitutes a complex ecological community of microorganisms that reside in various sites of the body, including the gut, skin, mouth, and other mucosal surfaces. These microorganisms encompass a diverse array of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and archaea. The term “microbiome” was first coined by renowned microbiologist Joshua Lederberg to… Continue reading Unveiling the Microbiome: Its Impact on Human Health and Wellness
