Are commercial providers a viable option for clinical bacterial sequencing?

Microbial genomics - 1 Apr 2018

Raven Kathy, Blane Beth, Churcher Carol, Parkhill Julian, Peacock Sharon J

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial whole-genome sequencing in the clinical setting has the potential to bring major improvements to infection control and clinical practice. Sequencing instruments are not currently available in the majority of routine microbiology laboratories worldwide, but an alternative is to use external sequencing providers. To foster discussion around this we investigated whether send-out services were a viable...
