Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, due to viral genome size, the content of genetic information for viruses is significantly smaller than that for bacteria, making traditional sequencing approaches unapplicable to address this complex problem for determining bacterial drug resistance.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method, a databank, a system and a computer program product for determining a bacterial resistance to an antibiotic drug. A data bank is provided which comprises a plurality of bacterial reference nucleic acid sequences, wherein at least some reference nucleic acid sequences are associated with a respective antibiotic drug resistance information. A comparison unit is used for comparing said bacterial nucleic acid sequence information obtained from a sample with said plurality of bacterial reference nucleic acid sequences.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method, database, system and computer program product for determining bacterial resistance to antibiotic drugs. Background technique [0002] For many human infections, it is important to know early on which bacterium is the cause of the infection because the symptoms may be similar between different specimens and the cause and treatment of the infection may vary widely. [0003] Even more important is the immediate use of diagnostics to know the potential resistance and susceptibility profiles of certain bacteria, given the complexity of antibiotic resistance, a grand challenge ranging from multiple factors to single nucleotide level variations . [0004] Thus, traditional microbial segmentation migrated to molecular microbiology. [0005] Different approaches can be used for bacterial diagnosis, the gold standard being the isolation and growth of bacterial strains, which is time consuming. For antibiotic suscepti...
