Overview
The Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Panel (UPIP) is a next-generation sequencing (NGS) research panel that enables detection and quantification of over 170 uropathogens responsible for urinary tract infections (UTIs) and co-infections and covers more than 3700 markers and their alleles associated with antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
Key Features
Delivers simultaneous detection of 120+ bacteria, 35 viruses, 14 fungi, 4 parasites, and 27 sexually transmitted pathogen plus associated AMR alleles in < 24 hours using the MiniSeq and Rapid Reagent Kit
Enriches uropathogen target regions from a range of host and environmental samples
Detects less common, challenging-to-grow, and frequently missed uropathogens
Outperforms shotgun metagenomics and conventional urine culture methods
The Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Panel Kit contains all library prep and enrichment reagents, indexes, and panel probes for on-bead tagmentation followed by a single hybridization step for generating enriched libraries. Integration of the enrichment kit with DNA extraction, sequencing, and DRAGEN Microbial Enrichment Plus allows a comprehensive and simple workflow for detection and identification of UTIs.
Applications
The Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Kit is used for detection and identification of over 170 uropathogens and more than 3700 antimicrobial resistance markers and their alleles from a range of sample types including clinical urinary research, environmental, and other sample types.

Related applications and methods
NGS for infectious diseases
As a hypothesis-free method, NGS can distinguish between infectious disease strains that differ by as little as one SNP, and replace multiple tests.
Target enrichment
Target enrichment captures genomic regions of interest through hybridization. Learn more about target enrichment and how it can be used to assess multiple samples at once.
Shotgun metagenomic sequencing
Comprehensively sample all genes in all organisms in complex samples to evaluate bacterial diversity and detect unculturable microorganisms using NGS.
Microorganisms covered on the Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Panel
Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Panel Kit can detect and quantify 174 organisms, including common and less common uropathogens and 27 sexually transmitted pathogens.
Sensitive pathogen detection
The Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Panel (UPIP) Kit offers more sensitive pathogen identification than shotgun metagenomics (SM) and culture methods. One or more uropathogens were detected in 342/399 (86%) urine samples by UPIP, in 262/399 samples (66%) by SM, and in 205/399 samples (51%) by urine culture.
Improved analytical sensitivity
Bacterial load measured by UPIP was higher in SM positive than in SM negative samples (p < 0.0001), consistent with the prediction of improved analytical sensitivity of targeted enrichment sequencing compared with SM. Detection of bacteria in the SM negative samples further demonstrates the improved sensitivity of enrichment compared to shotgun metagenomics.

Is culturing required before using the Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Kit?
No, culturing the sample before DNA extraction is not necessary. The Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Kit contains all library prep and enrichment reagents, indexes, and panel probes for on-bead tagmentation followed by a single hybridization step providing a rapid workflow for generating enriched libraries for sequencing.
Which DNA isolation method is recommended with the Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Kit?
We recommend isolating DNA using spin-column kits, as these are the most reliable and are commonly used for NGS. The DNA extraction protocol for the Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Kit can be found here .
How long before results are obtained using the Urinary Pathogen ID/AMR Enrichment Kit?
The library preparation and sequencing steps can be completed in two days on benchtop sequencing systems regardless of pathogen type. However, detection can be completed in < 24 hours when using the MiniSeq Sequencing System and MiniSeq Rapid Reagent Kit during the sequencing process.
Is there an internal quality control included in this panel?
The panel in this kit includes probes that will recognize 10 different commercially available controls. Those controls, however, are not provided as part of this kit and must be purchased separately and then spiked into samples prior to DNA and RNA extraction. Only one spike-in control is necessary for each experiment/sample.
How many reads are necessary per sample?
We generally recommend starting with 1M single reads, or 2M paired-end reads per sample using a minimum of 1 × 100 bp or 2 × 100 bp sequencing chemistries. These numbers are just a starting point and should be optimized based on sample types and target abundance.
Can I use this kit and enrichment panel for other sample types besides urinary?
Yes. If the targets covered in this panel align with your experimental goals, you can use DNA extracted from a variety of sample types. Wastewater samples are often tested using this kit for surveillance of these pathogens and their associated AMR. For wastewater samples, we generally recommend increasing the number of reads to 10M single reads or 20M paired-end reads.
