Tool and software

One of the biggest obstacles to implementing WGS in laboratories is the absence of bioinformatics expertise to handle the vast amount of data. To cope with this, Center for Genomic Epidemiology (GGE) at the Technical University of Denmark was initiated in 2010. The aim of CGE is to provide tools and software that use WGS data for discovering the content of a sample (typing), predict its pathogenic potential, and which antimicrobials it might be resistant towards (phenotyping).

At the CGE homepage you can explore and use the many different webtools for free:
