Research topics from publications: Alterations of fecal antibiotic resistome in COVID-19 patients after empirical antibiotic exposure; Epidemiological Investigation of Hospital Transmission of Corynebacterium striatum Infection by Core Genome Multilocus Sequence Typing Approach. Representative work: Recently, WGS of many human and animal pathogens has been successfully used to investigate microbial outbreaks. The cgMLST schema are powerful genotyping tools that can be used to investigate potential epidemics and provide classification of the strains precise and reliable. In this study, we proposed the development of a cgMLST typing scheme for C. striatum, and then we evaluated this scheme for its applicability to hospital transmission investigations. This report describes the first cgMLST schema for C. striatum. The analysis of hospital transmission of C. striatum based on cgMLST methods has important clinical epidemiological significance for improving nosocomial infection monitoring of
