Details
Archive description

Raw reads of the samples sequenced within the PediCAP trial (RIA2017MC). Peri-rectal swabs were sequenced using a shotgun metagenomic approach on a NextSeq instrument. Nasopharyngeal swabs were sequenced using a metaserotyping approach on a MinION instrument.

How this project entered the registry

Classified as human gut / stool / nasal / nasopharyngeal / multiple sites mixed assays of age unknown by curator_audit with confidence 0.00. Assay mixed.
