Quantitative pathogenic risk assessment via microbiome analysis

Microbial Index of Pathogenic bacteria (MIP) is an easy-to-use bioinformatic package that calculates the quantitative microbial pathogenic risk. MIP assesses the disease risk to human from a microbiome sample and reports the quantitative indices from multiple aspects using a reference pathogen database and an artificially curated pathogen-disease interaction network. MIP works as a plug-in tools of Parallel-META 3, and supports 16S rRNA amplicon sequences as input.
