Table 4 Detailed results of samples containing multiple bacterial isolates for pneumococcal identifications and/or serotype assignment

From: Application of a target enrichment-based next-generation sequencing protocol for identification and sequence-based prediction of pneumococcal serotypes

Sample ID

Sample composition (ratio of serotypes)

Total mapped reads per sample

Total reads mapped against serotype sequences

% reads mapped against serotype 19F*

% reads mapped against serotype 3*

% reads mapped against other serotype*

Number of reads mapped against lytA sequences

% reads mapped for S. pneumoniae(typical lytA)

% reads mapped for other viridans streptococci (atypical lytA)

(a) Samples with two serotypes tested with PCR 1
