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 ...

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 ...
