Genomic insights into the plasmidome of non-tuberculous mycobacteria - Genome Medicine
Background Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a diverse group of environmental bacteria that are increasingly associated with human infections and difficult to treat. Plasmids, which might carry r...

Diagnostics, resistance and clinical relevance of non-tuberculous mycobacteria unidentified at the species level by line probe assays: a bi-national study - PubMed
Our study demonstrates the clinical relevance of uncommon NTM and the effectiveness of targeted deep-sequencing combined with WGS in identifying rare and novel NTM species.

Last day of a fantastic Training and Consortium Meeting of the EDCTP3 funded PANGenS project (Pan-African Network for Genomic Surveillance of poverty related Diseases and Emerging pathogens) in beautiful Namibia. Really great to see everyone again in person. @fzborstel.bsky.social

Happy to have this one finally out...Many Thanks to all my colleagues in and outside Borstel, who made this possible :)
How does Haemophilus influenzae evolve mutational resistance to antibiotics like ampicillin? Difficulties with clinical breakpoints and some new genes that may play a role for other beta-lactam antibiotics as well.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is on the rise worldwide, posing a major challenge to global health. This week is world AMR awareness week... a perfect occassion to talk about a highly antibiotic-resistant and emerging group of bacteria: non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). #WAAM2024
Die bisher wenig untersuchten Nicht-tuberkulösen Mykobakterien (NTM) können schwere Lungeninfektionen & Lymphknotenentzündungen verursachen und sind schwierig zu behandeln. Am FZB werden die Mechanismen untersucht, die zu der Bildung von Resistenzen bei dieser Bakteriengruppe führen. #WAAW24

Nice and productive visit of colleagues from CERMEL (Gabon) in Borstel for training in tNGS and WGS of M. tuberculosis strains and discussion of TB sampling progress within the PANGenS project.
