Metagenomic arbovirus detection using MinION nanopore sequencing

Metagenomic arbovirus detection using MinION nanopore sequencing

This study examines the ability of the hand-held MinION sequencer to metagenomically detect and characterise a virus from an infected mosquito. This proof of concept study demonstrates the metagenomic detection of an arbovirus, using the MinION, directly from a mosquito with minimal sample purification.
