The brief

A multi-drug resistant pathogen reference strain and clinical isolate collection representative of pathogens and resistance mechanisms directly aligned to the PACE first funding call that can be used by the provider to generate antimicrobial susceptibility data across PACE-funded projects and that can be made available to PACE awardees for onward project progression.

Continued expansion and characterisation of the strain and isolate collection to ensure it remains reflective of contemporary and genomically diverse multi-drug resistant and epidemic lineages of target pathogens (~20-30 strains) across E. coli, K. pneumoniae, P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii and S. aureus.

This expanded collection will be made available for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) across PACE-funded projects and the wider AMR community.
