Abstract

Metatranscriptomics (MT) has the potential to revolutionize the field of molecular diagnostics. Due to the complexity of MT diagnostic models, positive and negative control materials for specific disease indications can be difficult to obtain. Controls must often be sourced directly from patients. This introduces logistical burdens, assay variability, and limits high throughput clinical laboratory…
