Metagenomic Analysis and Taxonomy of Bacteria Identified in Primary Endodontic Infections
The study explores the polymicrobial nature of primary endodontic infections using Illumina Next Generation Sequencing. Samples involved in research have been collected from root canals of the patients suffering from pulp and periapical inflammations with no history of endodontic interventions on affected teeth. The study revealed prevalence of different bacterial phyla, classes, orders and species. Further work will show potential correlations between individual microbiotas and clinical diagnosis.
