ISO-certified bioinformatics platform for genomics based bacterial Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) gene detection and surveillance is identified. Implementation of whole genome sequencing (WGS) is accepted for the detection of AMR resistance. A bioinformatic tool, “abritAMR” a wrapper for the NCBI AMRFinderPlus tool is for the detection of AMR determinants from WGS, with outputs adapted for clinical and public health microbiology reporting, it’s speed allows for rapid detection of AMR genes in routine high-throughput workflows, with gene detection completed on a 96-sample sequencing run within 3 minutes. Outputs of this technology include a detailed report output, consisting of a table of AMR genes or mutations detected for each sample, listed by enhanced subclass.
