AMR and Disease Surveillance
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and pathogen outbreaks pose serious risks to animal health and agricultural productivity. Effective monitoring and detection strategies are crucial for disease prevention and for maintaining the health of livestock and crops. At Cmbio, we offer microbiome and genomics solutions to support AMR surveillance and pathogen detection, ensuring safe and sustainable agricultural practices.

Our Expertise in AMR and Disease Surveillance
We provide a comprehensive set of tools designed to detect and monitor pathogens, characterize resistant strains, and assess the spread of antimicrobial resistance within agricultural and animal populations.
Pathogen Detection via Rapid 16S Sequencing
We offer fast and cost-effective pathogen detection using long-read 16S sequencing. This method allows for the rapid identification of bacterial species present in animal or environmental samples.
AMR Profiling Using Shotgun Metagenomics
Our shotgun metagenomics services provide in-depth profiling of antimicrobial resistance genes within microbial communities. This allows you to assess the presence and spread of resistance genes across different environments, animals, and agricultural settings, supporting proactive management of AMR risks.
Microbial Strain Characterization Using Long-Read Sequencing
We use long-read sequencing to accurately characterize microbial strains, offering detailed insights into the genetic makeup of pathogens. This includes identifying virulence factors and AMR genes, helping you track the transmission of resistant strains, and developing targeted intervention.
Microbial Source Tracking
We offer microbial source tracking services to understand the source and spread of pathogens and resistance genes. This helps trace the origins of contamination and resistant strains, informs disease control measures, and improves biosecurity in agriculture.
