Development of a portable on-site applicable metagenomic data generation workflow for enhanced pathogen and antimicrobial resistance surveillance

Abstract
Rapid, accurate and comprehensive diagnostics are essential for outbreak prevention and pathogen surveillance. Real-time, on-site metagenomics on miniaturized devices, such as Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION sequencing, could provide a promising approach. However, current sample preparation protocols often require substantial equipment and dedicated laboratories, limiting their use. In this study, we developed a rapid on-site applicable DNA extraction and library preparation approach for nanopore sequencing, using portable devices. The optimized method consists of a portable mechanical lysis approach followed by magnetic bead-based DNA purification and automated sequencing library preparation, and resulted in a throughput comparable to a current optimal, laboratory-based protocol using enzymatic digestion to lyse cells. By using spike-in reference communities, we compared the on-site method with other workflows, and demonstrated reliable taxonomic profiling, despite method-specific biases. We also demonstrated the added value of long-read sequencing by recovering reads containing full-length antimicrobial resistance genes, and attributing them to a host species based on the additional genomic information they contain. Our method may provide a rapid, widely-applicable approach for microbial detection and surveillance in a variety of on-site settings.
