New Genome Sequencing Technique to Differentiate Among Salmonella Serovars

 05/01/2020

A recent publication* evaluated real-time nanopore genome sequencing to identify serotypes of Salmonella.  The Oxford Nanopore Technologies procedure was contrasted with conventional whole genome sequencing to predict serotypes of Salmonella.  The specificity of serotyping using the Oxford Nanopore Sequencer was confirmed and the technique provides a turnaround time from pure culture to identification within one working day.
