An Integrated Approach for Pathogen Detection, AMR Monitoring, and Functional Analysis in Wastewater
X. Cheng, J. Wilkinson, K. Ngo, P. Baybayan, Y. Kim, P. Pham, E. Carrasco, S. Tang , J. Shen, and K. Locken

Wastewater surveillance has emerged as a pivotal tool in public health epidemiology. Particularly catalyzed by the Covid-19 pandemic, modern culture-independent sequencing methods have become indispensable due to their ability to offer a comprehensive perspective. In this study, we present an innovative, integrated approach for simultaneous pathogen detection, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) monitoring, and functional analysis within wastewater systems. By harnessing advanced sample preparation technologies provided by Zymo Research and leveraging PacBio Onso short-read sequencing, our objective is to elevate our comprehension of microbial dynamics within wastewater environments.
