| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases, the time that required for identification of the pathogen from patients, directly faces to the problem of the starting point for appropriate treatment and affects on patient prognosis. The exhaustive detection method for pathogens using the next generation sequencers without cultivation for isolation was developed. In the case of analyses such as blood, the current DNA purification method contaminates the large amount of host-derived DNA. It interferes to get enough of the sequence information of the pathogen of interest. Therefore, we developed a DNA purification method and identification method for efficiently acquiring information of the pathogen.
