Application of Second-Generation Sequencing Technology in Lower Respiratory Tract Infection.

Different studies discussed the application of second-generation sequencing technology in LRTI from different angles, including the detection of pathogens of LRTI by mNGS and ddPCR, the prediction ability of drug-resistant bacteria, and comparison with traditional methods. We try to analyse the advantages and disadvantages of the second-generation sequencing technology by combing the research results of mNGS and ddPCR. In addition, the development direction of the second-generation sequencing technology is prospected.
