The following is a summary of “A predictive model based on the gut microbiota improves the diagnostic effect in patients with ...

Emerging drug-resistant strains are posing significant challenges to the global fight against tuberculosis (TB) and it is a critical task to detect treatment failure as early as possible.

Using this type of approach, microbial species that have been identified as important members of communities by 16S rRNA survey sequencing or metagenomic approaches can be isolated and sequenced.

The main types of rRNA include: Small Subunit rRNA: In prokaryotes, the small subunit contains the 16S rRNA, while in eukaryotes, it contains the 18S rRNA. These rRNAs are involved in mRNA binding and ...
