PMseq™ Pathogen Metagenomic Sequencing is based on metagenomics, which allows for the simultaneous detection of major microorganisms in a sample using next-generation sequencing without the need for prior knowledge of their identities. PMseq™ can detect more than 36,000 types of pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, viruses, parasites, etc., as well as representative drug resistance and virulence genes without bias. By using PMseq™, the positive rate of pathogen diagnosis can be significantly increased, guiding the clinical targeted use of antibiotics and assisting in the precise diagnosis and treatment of infections.

Applicable Population

• Complicated or unexplained infectious patients
• Severe Infectious Patients
• Immunocompromised Patients
