Transforming Shiga toxin-producing surveillance through whole genome sequencing in food safety practices.
from 1998 to 2020 was analyzed. RESULTS: We confirmed that WGS in food safety surveillance allows accurate detection of genomic relationships between human cases and strains isolated from food samples, ...
Strain-Level Metagenomic Data Analysis of Enriched In Vitro and In Silico Spiked Food Samples: Paving the Way towards a Culture-Free Foodborne Outbreak Investigation Using STEC as a Case Study.
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Assia Saltykova; Florence E Buytaers; Sarah Denayer; Bavo Verhaegen; Piérard, Denis; Nancy Roosens; Marchal, Kathleen; Sigrid C.J. De Keersmaecker Source: Int J Mol Sci, Volume 21, Issue 16 (2020 ...
A Practical Method to Implement Strain-Level Metagenomics-Based Foodborne Outbreak Investigation and Source Tracking in Routine.
in the food vehicle without its prior isolation and link it back to human cases. We tested and validated a shotgun metagenomics approach by spiking food pathogens in specific food matrices using the ...
Impact of DNA extraction on whole genome sequencing analysis for characterization and relatedness of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolates
multilocus sequence typing and single nucleotide polymorphism analysis). Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) was selected as a case study. Overall, data quality and inferred phylogenetic ...
Associating sporadic, foodborne illness caused by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli with specific foods: a systematic review and meta-analysis of case-control studies
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Brecht Devleesschauwer; Sara Monteiro Pires; Ian Young; Alex Gill; Shannon E Majowicz; the study team Source: Epidemiology and Infection, Volume 147 (2019) Health Topics: Pathogenic E. coli Path ...
Impact of DNA extraction on whole genome sequencing analysis for characterization and relatedness of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolates.
(STEC) was selected as a case study. Overall, data quality and inferred phylogenetic relationships between isolates were not affected by the DNA extraction kit choice, irrespective of the presence of ...
