Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.
This strain is part of the Global Priority Superbugs collection. It is an extensively characterized antimicrobial-resistant clinical isolate with validated genotypic and phenotypic activity against a variety of drug classes. This strain is provided with geographic source information; an NGS-assembled whole genome sequence, including annotated antibiotic resistance and rRNA genes; and an expanded level of susceptibility data with MIC test results.
Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranges for resistant, intermediate, and susceptible are based on criteria within the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) Performance Standards for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing, 26th Edition.
Predicted antimicrobial resistance gene sequence data are provided for informational purposes only and are based on open reading frames (ORFs) identified and annotated from contigs produced during next-generation sequencing (NGS). ATCC does not warrant that the entire predicted antimicrobial resistance gene is present within the sequence prepared for lot-specific reports. Likewise, the information provided merely indicates that some portion of the sequence (whole or in part) is present based on analytical base pair alignment with known gene sequences.
