Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Bacterial genotyping is a crucial process in outbreak investigation and epidemiological studies. Several typing methods such as pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and whole genome sequencing are currently used in routine clinical practice. However, these methods are costly, time-consuming and have high computational demands. An alternative to these methods is...
