Abstract excerpt
Rapid, low-cost strain-level typing is essential for source attribution and microbiological control in clinical and industrial settings. Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy using IR Biotyper method was previously optimized to achieve an identification level equivalent to that of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) discrimination of Wickerhamomyces anomalus. However, the species of yeast studied were...
