Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
a proof-of-concept, we explored the use of adaptive sampling using various databases (depletion of the food matrix i.e. potato, enrichment of a selection of foodborne pathogens, enrichment of a database of ...
Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
resolution in samples with more than one strain of the same species, with both long and short reads sequencing technologies. Moreover, it offered proof of concepts of the feasibility of such a method, as asked ...
Targeted High-Throughput Sequencing Enables the Detection of Single Nucleotide Variations in CRISPR/Cas9 Gene-Edited Organisms
detected, both at high and low percentages. No impact related to food processing or to the presence of other crop species was observed. The present proof-of-concept study has allowed us to deliver the first ...
The Africa Food Environment Research Network (FERN): from concept to practice.
food environments. AIM AND APPROACH: This paper sets out the concept of the Africa Food Environment Research Network (FERN) initiative recently established by the Measurement, Evaluation, Accountability, and ...
Shotgun metagenomics as a ONE Health tool for better protecting human health
food-borne outbreak that occurred in Belgium in 2019. Discussion: By applying the shotgun metagenomics approach to specific case studies, we delivered proof-of-concepts and demonstrated its added value ...
Application of a strain-level shotgun metagenomics approach on food samples: resolution of the source of a Salmonella food-borne outbreak
2 weeks after receipt of the sample, which was freshly prepared tartar sauce in a meal cooked at the school. Our team used this outbreak as a case study to deliver a proof of concept for a short-read ...
A shotgun metagenomics approach to detect and characterize unauthorized genetically modified microorganisms in microbial fermentation products
presence of a GMM in a microbial fermentation product, with characterization based on the detection of AMR genes and vectors, species and unnatural associations in the GMM genome. In our proof‐of‐concept ...
Proteomic detection as an alternative for the quantification of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins
With a recognizable extraction concept the toxin is isolated from the incriminated matrix. During the process of method development the toxin was spiked at various steps down the extraction procedure to ...
