Evaluation of methods for whole genome sequencing of <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> in a diagnostic laboratory

2021-11-11

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecium is an important nosocomial pathogen associated with hospital transmission and outbreaks. Based on growing evidence that bacterial whole genome sequencing enhances hospital outbreak investigation of other bacterial species, our aim was to develop and evaluate methods for low volume clinical sequencing of E. faecium . Using a test panel of 22 E. faecium isolates associated previously with hospit...
