Cell-free DNA profiling informative way to monitor urinary tract infections

Using shotgun DNA sequencing, Cornell University researchers have demonstrated a new method for monitoring urinary tract infections (UTIs) that surpasses traditional methods in providing valuable information about the dynamics of the infection as well as the patient’s biological response. The technique is detailed in the paper “Urinary cell-free DNA is a versatile analyte for monitoring infections of the urinary tract,” […]
