Abstract excerpt
In industrial settings, identifying the source of microbial contamination is crucial for effective microbiological risk assessment. While various strain identification technologies exist, many struggle with practicality, accuracy, and reproducibility. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) has emerged as a rapid method, demonstrating a strong correlation with whole-genome sequencing (WGS) for certain...
