“WGS applications in food safety management, could contribute to greater consumer protection,trade facilitation, and food/nutrition security.”
“Countries around the world use WGS or consider using it for food safety: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Japan, Kenya, South-Africa, Spain, UK, USA,……….”

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)SCIENTIFIC ROBUSTNESS QUESTIONS
Are scientific studies available to validate the correct interpretation of finding particular genetic profiles in homes, environments or business operations?
Is the technology mature enough for us to understand the relationship between genotypic traits of isolates and actual risk to public health, rather than hazard presence?
What about quantification, given differences in regulatory limits of pathogens globally?
Is there clarity on the regulatory response when “interesting” or “suspect” WGS profiles are found to be associated between “field” & database profiles?

Value of information:
- Method standardization & protocol harmonization to maximize comparability.
- Quality Assurance challenge underestimated?
Validity of interpretation:
- Rather immature science area; demanding capability; genotype versus phenotypic expression/epidemiology; challenge to use data in risk-based food safety management
Legal matters:
- Ownership: 3rd Party data generation & storage, external collaborations; public storage/sharing
- Consequences: “false positive” associations in enforcement context; “legacy” cases raised; “risk communication during investigations”
- Governance: little involvement of legal experts in developments
Training and Education:
- A global and local challenge, less for technical skills then for operational application
JOBs TO BE DONE!?

Utility of WGS – positive outlook
WGS as a new research tool / risk assessment input
- Microbial ecology, microbiome,….
- Preservations systems, tolerance, preservation targets,…..
- Resistance mechanisms, resistance anticipation/avoidance, AMR,…..
WGS as a investigational tool:
- Outbreak investigation, attributing cases to outbreaks,…..
- Root cause analysis, trouble shooting,….
WGS as an early warning tool:
- Identification of possible associations between illness cases and microorganisms…..
- Sharing of WGS data leverages resources to broaden the reference base28
WGS as a identification tool:
- Identification of microorganisms…..
