A review of modern literature on the study of microbiota of the genitourinary system by methods of chromatography-mass spectrometry and sequencing of urine specimens is presented in the article. The sequencing method is used to analyze microbiota of different organs. Obtained results of the genomic analysis have revealed cases of infection by potential pathogenic microorganisms, which are often not diagnosed during standard urine culture due to specific requirements for culture media.
