Clinical Trial Summary
Comparison of rapid detection methods of mycobacterial pathogens, GenSeizer v.s. PCR reverse
hybridization.
Description:
The investigators developed a new platform called GenSeizer, which combines bioinformatics
analysis of a large dataset with multiplex PCR-based targeted gene sequencing, to identify
eleven major Mycobacterium species implicated in human disease. Simultaneous detection of
certain antibiotic resistance genotypes, i.e., erm(41) and rrl in M. abscessus, is also
feasible. This platform detected both reference strains and clinical isolates with a high
degree of specificity and sensitivity.
In this study, the investigators plan to verify the detection efficiency of GenSeizer in
clinical samples (sputum, alveolar lavage fluid) and compare it with existing methods on the
market (PCR reverse hybridization) and gold standard method (target sequencing after
incubation)
