The World Health Organization is encouraging all countries to use this high-throughput technology. It has already been adopted by numerous official agencies such as the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) in the United States, the ECDC (European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control) in the European Union and China&#8217;s first food-borne disease molecular traceability\u00a0network based on whole-genome sequencing technology launched in 2019.<br \/>This technology is now also available for various industry applications: WGS helps food manufacturers to understand the origin of occasional or recurring food contaminations by pathogens as well as to prevent potential\u00a0future food crisis.
