Characterization of vaginal microbiomes in clinician-collected bacterial vaginosis diagnosed samples

Hayden N. Brochu, Qimin Zhang, Kuncheng Song, Lingling Wang, Emily A. Deare, Jonathan D. Williams, Crystal R. Icenhour, Lakshmanan K. Iyer

The paper uses 16S rRNA gene sequencing to characterize vaginal microbiomes in BV-diagnosed samples, showing strong concordance with PCR-based tests and identifying BV-associated microbial and metabolic signatures.
