Rapid Diagnosis of <em>Capnocytophaga canimorsus</em> Septic Shock in an Immunocompetent Individual Using Real-Time Nanopore Sequencing

Abstract: We present a case of Capnocytophaga canimorsus septic shock after a dog bite in an immunocompetent individual, where real-time nanopore metagenomic sequencing characterized the microbial agent within 19 hours, with subsequent confirmation using droplet digital PCR. Oral swabs from the dog demonstrated a nearly-identical C. canimorsus isolate by sequencing.

“…This data processing methodology can return results on-the-go and at the same time, only engages small memory footprint which is a clear benefit when working with large amounts of data, over long period of running experiment. Our tools are proved to be helpful in reducing the turn-around time for the clinical analysis and heading toward rapid diagnostic usage of MinION in real-life applications [96].…”
