Also known as WGS, it is the process of determining the complete DNA sequence of an organism\u2019s genome at a single time. Whole Genome Sequencing is a revolution in public health surveillance. The World Health Organization is encouraging all countries to use this high-throughput technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bacterial whole genome sequencing&nbsp;helps food manufacturers understand the origin of punctual or recurring food contamination by pathogens and to prevent potential future outbreaks.
