Comparing Multiple Locus Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Analyses with Whole-Genome Sequencing as Typing Method for Salmonella Enteritidis Surveillance in The Netherlands, January 2019 to March 2020

ABSTRACT In the Netherlands, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was implemented as routine typing tool for Salmonella Enteritidis isolates in 2019. Multiple locus variable-number tandem repeat analyses (MLVA) was performed in parallel. The objective was to determine the concordance of MLVA and WGS as typ...
