Retrospective evaluation of routine whole genome sequencing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at the Belgian National Reference Center, 2019.
switched from conventional typing to prospective whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of all submitted complex (MTB) isolates. The ISO17025 validated procedure starts with semi-automated extraction and purification ...
Strategy to Develop and Evaluate a Multiplex RT-ddPCR in Response to SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Evolution.
continuously evolving worldwide. In the present study, we proposed a methodology based on an in silico and in vitro analysis. First, we used all information offered by available whole-genome sequencing data for ...
Epidemiology of the Staphylococcus aureus CA-MRSA USA300 in Belgium
Marie Source: Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis, Volume 40, Issue 11 (2021) Keywords: ADOLESCENT Adult Aged Aged, 80 and over Anti-Bacterial Agents Belgium Child Child, Preschool Female Genome, Bacterial ...
Characterization of Genetically Modified Microorganisms Using Short- and Long-Read Whole-Genome Sequencing Reveals Contaminations of Related Origin in Multiple Commercial Food Enzyme Products.
commercial microbial fermentation produce types. Several of these contaminations are related to a GM used to synthesize a food enzyme protease, for which genomic characterization remains currently incomplete, ...
Large diversity of linezolid-resistant isolates discovered in food-producing animals through linezolid selective monitoring in Belgium in 2019.
genomes and relatedness of these isolates. METHODS: Faecal samples (n = 1325) and nasal swab samples (n = 148) were analysed with a protocol designed to select LR bacteria, including a 44-48 h incubation ...
The Importance of Quality Control of LSDV Live Attenuated Vaccines for Its Safe Application in the Field.
(GTPV), in addition to vaccine LSDV. New phylogenetic PCR s were developed to characterize in detail the genomic content and a vaccination/challenge trial was conducted to evaluate the impact on efficacy ...
Application of a strain-level shotgun metagenomics approach on food samples: resolution of the source of a Salmonella food-borne outbreak
Pochet, Brigitte; Vera Cantaert; Marchal, Kathleen; Sarah Denayer; Sigrid C.J. De Keersmaecker Source: Microbial Genomics, Volume 7, Issue 4 (2021) Keywords: food surveillance Metagenomics outbreak ...
Molecular and virological characterization of the first poultry outbreaks of Genotype VII.2 velogenic avian orthoavulavirus type 1 (NDV) in North-West Europe, BeNeLux, 2018.
VII.2 subgenotype in the North-West of Europe. Time-calibrated full genome phylogenetic analysis indicated the silent or unreported circulation of the virus prior to the emergence of three genetic ...
Coverage of the national surveillance system for human Salmonella infections, Belgium, 2016-2020.
Food Poisoning Salmonella Infections whole genome sequencing Abstract: INTRODUCTION: The surveillance of human salmonellosis in Belgium is dependent on the referral of human Salmonella isolates to the ...
Whole-Genome Sequencing-Based Antimicrobial Resistance Characterization and Phylogenomic Investigation of 19 Multidrug-Resistant and Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-Positive Escherichia coli Strains Collected From Hospital Patients in Benin in 2019.
effective antibiotics. We used whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to evaluate antimicrobial resistance and the phylogenomic relationships of 19 ESBL-positive isolates collected from surgical site infections in ...
