Abstract excerpt
This work shows that an incubation time reduced to 4-5 h to prepare a culture for DNA extraction followed by an automated DNA extraction can shorten the hands-on time, the turnaround time by 30% and increase the throughput while maintaining the WGS quality assessed by high quality Single Nucleotide Polymorphism analysis.
