Rapid Pathogen Metagenomics Laboratory

Infection Sciences

Using a validated workflow developed collaboratively by Synnovis and Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, our pathogen metagenomics service applies human DNA depletion, total nucleic acid extraction, long read sequencing and automated bioinformatic analysis to provide clinically actionable results within hours. Metagenomics currently supports the investigation of respiratory samples and complements routine microbiology and virology diagnostics across the network.
