High-throughput Surveillance for Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Environmental Samples

Explore high-throughput surveillance techniques for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in environmental samples through this informative webinar presented by Dr. Windi Muziasari, cofounder and CEO of Resistomap. Gain insights into advanced molecular microbiological methods that are cost-effective, rapid, and standardizable for monitoring ARGs. Learn how Resistomap combines culture-independent laboratory techniques with high-throughput gene quantification using the SmartChip® Real-Time PCR system, coupled with a digital platform for data analysis and visualization. Discover the importance of identifying, characterizing, and monitoring antibiotic resistance hotspots in various environmental samples, including wastewater, river water, lake water, seawater, soil, manure, and stool. Understand the global health threat posed by antibiotic resistance and its emergence as a micropollutant of concern. Benefit from Dr. Muziasari's extensive experience in environmental antibiotic resistance and bacterial genetics as she shares valuable knowledge on preventing the spread of antibiotic resistance through effective surveillance methods.
