BSFM 2023- L. monocytogenes in Plant-Based Foods: insights from of a recent foodborne outbreak linked to vegan alternative to cheese
following ISO 11290 – 1 and – 2. A human strain was collected at the NRC Listeria. All isolated strains underwent serotyping for further characterisation at the NRC Listeria, and Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) ...
Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
resolved. Shotgun metagenomics is a sequencing method involving the analysis of the genetic material directly extracted from a sample, without the need for an isolation of the bacteria. By sequencing and ...

Virological surveillance of influenza in Belgium, season 2019-2020
viruses fell in the 6B. 1A5A subgroup represented by the reference strain A/Norway/3433/2018. About half of the sequenced A(H3N2) viruses belonged to the clade 3C.2a1 and the remaining belonged to the ...
Towards a new (H)ERA: Developments to strengthen infectious diseases surveillance and pandemic preparedness
preparedness, a high capacity and interoperable infrastructure is crucial. Furthermore, the advent of Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) in the field of microbiology allows for higher microbial subtyping. In ...
Homologous versus heterologous prime-boost COVID-19 vaccination: impact on clinical severity of Omicron among hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Belgium
