The availability of bacterial strains for the study of bacterial resis-tance is key to advances in basic and clinical research. There are few biobanks of bacteria with known resistance mechanisms, isolated from clinically significant infections. A review of the literature reveals that only in the United States of America is there a biobank of resistant isolates. This publication shows the creation of the first biorepository of resistant bacteria Chile associated with the MICROB-R Laboratory Network, with the participation of 11 centers distributed throughout the country, which to date has more than 3,500 bacterial isolates studied phenotypically and genotypically, available to the Chilean scientific community.

Resumen | The availability of bacterial strains for the study of bacterial resis-tance is key to advances in basic and clinical research. There are few biobanks of bacteria with known resistance mechanisms, isolated from clinically significant infections. A review of the literature reveals that only in the United States of America is there a biobank of resistant isolates. This publication shows the creation of the first biorepository of resistant bacteria Chile associated with the MICROB-R Laboratory Network, with the participation of 11 centers distributed throughout the country, which to date has more than 3,500 bacterial isolates studied phenotypically and genotypically, available to the Chilean scientific community. |
