About the Event

Highlights: 

• Largest dog cohort to date analyzed for both the bacterial and fungal microbiota in healthy and diseased skin and ears.

• This study uniquely used relative and absolute microbial abundances determining a cutoff for microbial infectious overgrowth.

• Potential novel pathogens causing canine skin and ear infections can be discovered using the NGS-based approach as described.

• NGS-based analysis of infections is a novel diagnostic approach with the potential to significantly reduce patient suffering.

• NGS-based analysis allows real-time microbiome monitoring and may reduce the use of unwarranted antibiotics for infections.
