Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Diagnosis of bacteremia is performed by identification of bacterial pathogen using blood culture technique and single colony isolation. However, the causative bacteria present in the patient are not necessarily single clone. It is possible that some genetic diversity exists, and further changes will be occurred by treatment or host immunity. In this study, we performed population genetics and metagenomic analysis to reveal the genetic diversity of the causative bacteria present in individual patients and their variation in cases of bacteremia.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
菌血症を発症した血液中の病原細菌を集団として捉えて、集団遺伝学的な視点から、その遺伝的多様性を解析するという新しい発想に基づく研究であり、特定の分離菌株のみを対象とする従来の解析では得られなかった菌血症の発症・進展に係わる新たな知見が得られた。
