Test ID: BTWGS
Bacterial Typing by Whole Genome Sequencing, Varies
Useful For 
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Aiding in the investigation of a potential outbreak by a single bacterial species
May assist in identification of recurrent infection in an individual patient
Reflex Tests Lists tests that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial tests.

Testing Algorithm Delineates situations when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
Organism identification is required. All bacteria submitted will be tested. Organism identifications that are incorrect or incomplete may result in no results at final analysis. Laboratory may perform matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) or other testing as listed in Reflex Tests to confirm identification, report this finding, and charge accordingly.
When reanalysis of previously submitted isolates for comparison to new isolates is requested, bioinformatics reanalysis will be added by Mayo Clinic Laboratories. Original patient submission information (names and order numbers) must be provided.
