Abstract excerpt

Bacterial sequencing will become increasingly adopted in routine microbiology laboratories. Here, we report the findings of a technical evaluation of almost 800 clinical methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates, in which we sought to define key quality metrics to support MRSA sequencing in clinical practice. We evaluated the accuracy of mapping to a generic reference versus clonal complex...
