Clinical isolates data notes
The advances in sequencing techniques in the last few years, as well as the decrease of the associated costs as led to an increased usage of whole genome sequencing (WGS) of bacterial isolates in the clinical setting. A WGS approach can provide a species-level classification of the isolates, enable the identification of new species at the individual patient level, and can enable the detection of cases of polyclonal infection or co-infection by opportunistic pathogens. As multidrug-resistant isolates are becoming an increasing worry, a WGS approach provides a non-negligible advantage to infection control. Thus, bacterial WGS as a means of routine genomic surveillance of bacterial isolates in clinics has great potential to improve patient treatment and infection control.
This BMC Genomic Data Collection welcomes Data Notes reporting whole genomic sequencing of clinical bacterial isolates or any other relevant omics dataset. Research articles and databases will also be considered.
