Innovation TitleRapid pathogen sequencing (Rappseq): a cloud platform for identifying aquaculture bacterial pathogens from long-read DNA sequence data
Innovation description The Nanopore MinION DNA sequencer offers a cost-effective solution for identifying bacterial pathogens in real time. However, the data it produces is inherently noisy, making accurate pathogen typing a challenge. This new developed cloud platform employs a learning and classification approach to accurately and rapidly identify bacterial pathogens to serotype and sequence type (ST) level. This tool will enable farmers to make timely and effective decisions around treatment and vaccination when pathogen outbreaks occur.

Stage reached

Stage of InnovationStage 1: discovery/proof of concept
Year (Stage)2020
Stage DescriptionWe have collected two types of genomic data from 25 bacterial isolates: 1) highly accurate sequence data derived from long and short read sequencing that will be used for building the reference training database for machine learning algorithms 2) raw nanopore read data from the same pathogens for model development.
