Development of strain-level shotgun metagenomics approaches to detect and characterize microbiological contaminants in the context of food safety
based on the sequencing of all genetic material of the sample without isolation has become available some years ago, e.g. shotgun metagenomics. It allows to get a screenshot of every microbiological ...
High diversity of yeast species and strains responsible for vulvovaginal candidiasis in South-East Gabon.
genetic structure of the C. albicans strains was determined by multiple locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis using 4 microsatellite markers. RESULTS: The mean and median age of the patients was 31 ...
Genomic epidemiology of persistently circulating MDR Shigella sonnei strains associated with men who have sex with men (MSM) in Belgium (2013–19)
identification of genetic markers of antimicrobial resistance was performed on 372 Belgian isolates submitted between 2013 and 2019. RESULTS: S. sonnei was identified in 75% (930/1253) of Belgian Shigella ...
The lack of K13-propeller mutations associated with artemisinin resistance in Plasmodium falciparum in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
Republic of the Congo Drug Resistance Female Humans Malaria, Falciparum Male middle aged Mutation Plasmodium falciparum Polymorphism, Genetic Young adult Abstract: Artemisinin-based combination therapies ...
Molecular surveillance of anti-malarial drug resistance in Democratic Republic of Congo: high variability of chloroquinoresistance and lack of amodiaquinoresistance.
Mutation Plasmodium falciparum Polymorphism, Genetic Prospective Studies Protozoan Proteins Young adult Abstract: BACKGROUND: The loss of chloroquine (CQ) effectiveness has led to its withdrawal from ...
Combining short and long read sequencing to characterize antimicrobial resistance genes on plasmids applied to an unauthorized genetically modified Bacillus
to reconstruct from WGS data. This study aimed to improve the characterization, including the localization of AMR genes using short and long read WGS strategies. We used a genetically modified ...
Imported malaria and artemisinin-based combination therapy failure in travellers returning to Belgium: A retrospective study.
recurrence. Five had hyperparasitaemia and/or signs of severe malaria at initial consultation. No mutations in ACT drug resistance markers were detected, although pfcrt-pfmdr1 haplotypes associated with ...
Comparative Analysis of Whole-Genome Sequence of African Swine Fever Virus Belgium 2018/1.
sequence revealed 15 differences compared with an improved virus African swine fever virus Georgia 2007/1 sequence. However, in the absence of genetic markers, no spatial or temporal correlations could ...
Shifting national surveillance of Shigella infections toward geno-serotyping by the development of a tailored Luminex assay and NGS workflow.
combining five genetic markers for species identification with 11 markers for serotype prediction for S. sonnei and S. flexneri isolates. Using a test panel of 254 clinical samples, this assay has ...
A liquid bead array for the identification and characterization of fljB-positive and fljB-negative monophasic variants of Salmonella Typhimurium.
of the somatic and flagellar antigens of STMV is not sufficient to demonstrate relatedness with Salmonella Typhimurium, additional assays detecting genetic markers unique to Salmonella Typhimurium are ...
