be.Prepared to increase Belgian integration of health data as a way of strengthening preparedness for infectious diseases

Genomics Infectious diseases national reference centre for human microbiology Pandemic preparedness public health Surveillance Whole genome sequencing (WGS) Abstract: The Belgian Preparedness Architecture ...

Towards a new (H)ERA: Developments to strengthen infectious diseases surveillance and pandemic preparedness

preparedness, a high capacity and interoperable infrastructure is crucial. Furthermore, the advent of Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) in the field of microbiology allows for higher microbial subtyping. In ...

First Belgian Report of Ertapenem Resistance in an ST11 Klebsiella Pneumoniae Strain Isolated from a Dog Carrying blaSCO-1 and blaDHA-1 Combined with Permeability Defects

(MLST) and the identification and localization of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and virulence-associated genes. Three plasmids were reconstructed from the whole-genome sequence (WGS) data: the conjugative ...

Whole-Genome Sequence Approach and Phylogenomic Stratification Improve the Association Analysis of Mutations With Patient Data in Influenza Surveillance.

mainly focused on the hemagglutinin gene. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enables tracking mutations across all influenza segments allowing a better understanding of the epidemiological effects of intra- and ...

Listeria monocytogenes isolates from Cornu aspersum snails: Whole genome-based characterization and host-pathogen interactions in a snail infection model.

Here, we use whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to assess the genomic diversity of hypervirulent, virulent and non-virulent phenotypes of 15 L. monocytogenes isolated from snails to unveil their survival, ...

Use of a Whole Genome Sequencing-based approach for Mycobacterium tuberculosis surveillance in Europe in 2017-2019: an ECDC pilot study.

Dick van Soolingen; Marieke J van der Werf; Daniela Maria Cirillo; ECDC molecular surveillance project participants Source: Eur Respir J (2020) Abstract: Whole genome sequencing (WGS) can be used for ...

Phylogeography of Human and Animal Strains: Genetic Fingerprinting of Q Fever in Belgium.

reservoirs. To determine the relationship between animal and human strains, Multiple Locus Variable-number Tandem Repeat Analysis (MLVA) (n=146), Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) (n=92) and Whole Genome ...

Listeria surveillance in Belgium

evolution in molecular typing, the NRC completely switched to Whole-Genome-Sequencing (WGS) for cluster detection. Therefore, an in-house Galaxy-based bio-informatic pipeline was developed. For the strain ...
