White Paper: Outbreak analysis of Shigella sonnei using 1928 SNP analysis

2019-11-28

UPGMA tree showing the result of the cgMLST analysis performed on the Shigella sonnei outbreak in the 1928 platform.

1928 Diagnostics offers a platform for analysis of NGS sequenced bacterial genome data for resistance predictions and outbreak surveillance in a clinical routine setting.

For outbreak analysis, two different methods can be used: cgMLST and SNP analysis.

For cgMLST, 1928 Diagnostics support a wide range of bacteria through predefined and manually curated schemas. In this white paper, we are looking at data from a previously published study and re-create the phylogeny presented in the article, by performing SNP analysis.
