Abstract excerpt
Despite the proven value of applying genomic data for epidemiological purposes, commonly used high-throughput sequencing formats are not adapted to the response times required to intervene and finally control outbreaks. In this study, we propose a fast alternative to whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to track relevant microbiological strains: nanopore sequencing of multiple amplicons including strain marker single...
