Rapid sequencing of RNA/DNA from pathogen samples obtained during disease outbreaks provides critical scientific and public health information. However, challenges exist for exporting samples to laboratories or establishing conventional sequencers in remote outbreak regions. We successfully used a novel, pocket-sized nanopore sequencer at a field diagnostic laboratory in Liberia during the current Ebola virus outbreak.
在疾病暴发期间,对从病原体样本中获取的RNA/DNA进行快速测序可提供关键的科学和公共卫生信息。然而,将样本运往实验室或在偏远的疫情地区建立传统测序仪存在挑战。在当前埃博拉病毒暴发期间,我们在利比里亚的一个现场诊断实验室成功使用了一种新型的袖珍纳米孔测序仪。
