CRyPTIC inoculates its 15,000th microtitre plate

Sometime in November 2019, the 15,000th 96-well microtitre plate was inoculated with M. tuberculosis. Since each plate contains 13 different antibiotics used to treat tuberculosis this is a large and comprehensive antibiotic susceptibility dataset. The vast majority of samples also have their whole genome sequenced to enable us to associate genetic variants with resistance (or susceptibility).
