Rapid Whole Genome Characterization of High-Risk Pathogens Using Long-Read Sequencing to Identify Potential Healthcare Transmission
2024-08-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objective</h4> Routine use of whole genome sequencing (WGS) has been shown to help identify transmission of pathogens causing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). However, the current gold standard of short-read, Illumina-based WGS is labor and time-intensive. In light of recent improvements in long-read Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing, we sought to establish a low resource utilization appro...
